Calacatta Blanco


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk


Calacatta Blanco is a color sold by MSI, Vadara, Arizona Tile, Home Depot and a bunch of others. It was historically made by Monica, LE and a couple others in China.

It is very popular and has gotten very expensive with the new taxes imposed on Quartz.

Pick a color, 60 different colors and patterns to choose from. :)

What a cool job. Thanks for sharing all of these pics. Were you an EOD tech in the military to get this gig?

No,
Being a dual status Sergeant/Detective,
and working Metropolitan Division (C Platoon), and experience in vehicle wiring schematics all got me in.
If you can succeed in a line Platoon in Metropolitan Division, you’re good to go for this stint.

Very cool, it looks like a ton of fun. Something different every day. I spent quite a bit of time growing up at El Toro and Mira Mar with the EOD guys doing the airshows with my buddy and his dad. Good times.

Just a follow up because this kinda pisses me off....harbor patrol gets there and ties a line on and attempts to keep the boat from burying further onto shore with their 22 whaler (obviously can’t pull it off the beach). Coasties get there with that big ol bad ass rib and refuse to throw a line and pull them off. Presumably because there’s no eminent danger. I’m sure it’s their policy for fear of liability. But come on, that rib would’ve yanked this poor dude right off the shore. Instead they sit there and wait for the pirates (aka sea tow) to show up and yank them off for 3k! It just irritates me that common sense is squashed because of frevilous lawsuits that run policies.

Sorry rant over.

Yup. All it takes is one retard to sue someone else for their own mistake. Liability's all around us acting in an official capacity. That "Sailor" should never have been in that situation to begin with.

Called an audible and went West instead. Fun day riding at the beach with the wife and oldest son.

Our first place when we got married. Winter rental in Balboa across from the grass. Good times and memories.
