I visit Wings Castle whenever I’m in the area because it’s an inspiration to any DIY fanatic. I mean, they built this themselves! With reclaimed materials! The swimming pool is a friggen moat! When I found out Wings Castle was for sale, I started saving my pennies. Currently listed at $5,850,000, I still have a few more years to go before I can afford it. I’m taking donations if anyone wants to see me finish the ongoing 30+ year project started by Peter Wing.

One of my favorite day trips is: Millbrook Winery, Wings Castle, lunch at the Culinary Institute.

Better get to Wing’s castle soon before they move to Hawaii and it is closed to visitors.
