I don't think the photos match from what we are able to see.

Jef's was in Palm Springs.
I don't think the stones match.

Doesn't mean it isn't another safe house.
Also doesn't mean it isn't at a house that Chris was at that just happened to be stucco.

I live in Ontario Canada and have a stucco house and there's another one on my street.  No green on either and they're both around 30 yrs old   No way Seattle's weather is worse than ours, I can tell you all that for free lol  

Actually, I lived in Vancouver and the weather there is the same as Seattle.  We couldn't have stucco siding/coating on our house as it would turn green in the winter and would have to be scraped off each spring for the two years we had it.  After the second season, most of the stucco was gone anyways due to the dampness.  We ended up removing the remaining stucco and put vinyl siding on our house.  Each spring, we also have to scrape the green slime off of the fencing and decks, depending on whether you had trees around your home as the trees out here seem to grow really fast and since they usually are cedar in nature, they tend to hold in the moisture as well causing the decks, housing not to be able to dry out as easily and therefore the green slime can grow at a rapid pace.

Depending on where you lived in Ontario, as I lived around Toronto, you could have stucco siding as the temperatures in the summer were better and the weather there was generally drier.  In the interior of the province where it is drier and warmer, yes, we could have stucco on our home as it would dry out easier.

The pics still tell me nothing. No clues either way.

I actually think it is just a picture. And has nothing to do with a safe house. It looks like Chris is being a little funny and pulling down on his swim trunks. His hands are looking like he is pulling down on the fabric.

I'm northern Ontario, near a great lake.... cold, damp and long, wet winters and lots of rain the rest of the year. We just get a better quality of stucco here I guess. I get that green stuff on my deck and have to power wash it every summer but have only seen it on one spot on the back of our house where there's some shrubs up close to it, and it hoses off easy.

I'm new but have been reading.  If Brooks is so insecure about his ability to commit and waffles back and forth, is this really a good long term match for Des or is Brooks just a physical relationship which wears off quickly. If he does bolt why would she take the risk he would not do it again?

[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]  welcome Swissmiss... I didn't see where anyone said that or answered your question.

Brooks being "so insecure about his ability to commit and waffles back and forth" is still conjecture at this point.  it appears that the Chris/Drew fans want to use that brush to paint him, but actually we don't know what is going on yet.  it could be that it is nothing but a misunderstanding, after all his date would be the third FD, and you know what they say about sloppy seconds and thirds.  it could be that he's getting cold feet.  honestly we don't know, so personally I would rather wait to hold judgment, and even then I will hold mine.  I do know that Brooks is the only guy that is left that she has openly said she loves, that she is at that finish line, and that she wants a proposal from him. I would say no matter what goes down between them, that Chris or Drew would be second choice at that short time frame, and I don't think either of them deserve that.

to answer your question "why would she take the risk he would not do it again?"... because she loves him and you do that with people you love, none of us are perfect.

oh my lord, we are down to this again... it's obvious they are not the same.  the walls on the one with Jef are panels.  the one with Chris is stucco.  the blocks are different.  look down to Jef's left, see the 12" blocks and the dirt.  Look at the floor of the one with Chris, no dirt, no spaces in the blocks.  Most people who have pools have vegetation around them for privacy and atmosphere.  I thought we beat this horse to death a long time ago??

Hmmm... I haven't posted a great deal this season as I remained unspoiled of her final choices until about a week ago. BUT I do know this... I can discuss anything I like pertaining to the show or screencaps. And discuss it again....if I choose to do so. Period.

I was helping someone out that wanted to see the photos. I also simply asked why some thought it was a safe house photo. I think anyone can talk about what they wish (on topic) until they are "blue in the face" if they choose. I wasn't seeing anything in the photo that led me to believe it was a safe house and was curious about what others saw. Don't be surprised if this subject is brought up again by someone else. It just might happen.

Pretty much everything is still speculation at this point so why shouldn't we discuss it?  In any case it doesn't have to be the same house, it could still be a safe house pic.  I've never heard that final couples were at the same house anyway.
