About Us

We are a family of 5 including 3 children ages 9,8 and 5. My name is Frank and I used to work in the hedge fund industry. My wife Chris is a homemaker. We are interested in family time, music, movies and sports. We have 2 German Shepherds who are very friendly. We could leave them if you wanted but would plan on having a friend care for them.

Destination

We're mostly available during the summer. We could do other school holidays but our place is nicest in the summer unless you were interested in skating, sledding and sitting by the fireplace. We are most interesed in spending 2-4 on the beach in southern California but can also do 1-3 week trades for something on the coast between Maine and Florida. That said if you have a nice place that has fun family stuff to do and room for 5 or more give us a shout. We've got great imaginations. Thanks.
