The wife told me no to living on a houseboat

I love the water, was brought up on the water.. before I was born and during.. I`m half fish pretty much.

Ocean I`m not too familiar with... but I'd like to live ON a lake in a boat, or on a lake in a house.. either one is my ultimate goal someday.

Problem is I also want to remain living away from a big town so that means private lake, and $$

Is there anyway you can post pics? If you need a camera let me know I probably have an old one here someplace.
