13 La Fou Shack never got built … but hey! it is still available for someone else to build! She’s was from Venus and all style, and he was from Mars with a penchant for the guitar, The Beatles, and being a rock star on certain special occasions. In a secluded and hidden virgin bush enclave, they were going to create a serene escape for their entourage of combined offspring, grandkids, and friends to enjoy for many years to come. 13 La Fou Shack even had a separate artist studio to get those creative juices flowing in quiet solitude with the sounds and views of nature (or ‘geetar’) as company. On quiet full moon nights, you may have heard the sultry tunes coming from a distance guitar … ‘Twist and Shout!’
