What about posting some pictures, guys?

My own situation has developed on nine acres on a somewhat sandy upland area - cleared forest in a very mountainous locality, actually. This has been a family situation, and not highly capitalized. My wife and I have spent a lot of our work lives being freelance & home-based, which has offered personal freedom but not always a consistent income. Hence, we also each took nine-to-five jobs for stretches lasting up to seven years. But overall, limited funds meant that I don't have an ideal shop situation full of dream equipment. I've got portions of three buildings where some of my tools are kept - carpentry/woodworking things in a portion of our larger shed (16x35 ft) and also, along with some mechanic's and electrician's tools, in a portion of my basement. And I've got a covered but open-air welding & metal-working area behind our converted barn. I guess these are my "man caves". :lol:

kstavens,
yeah no embargo, not that i let that stop me. but i have canuk friends on a couple of cigar forums, and i know how insane y'alls tax structure is. we pay 1/2 what you pay for alcahol and tobacco. of course that's subject to change when our clueless leaders grapple with fiancing olbammy's public health.
dd,
hey buell used to work for HD and markets his new designs through HD stealerships. whatever it takes to keep a smile on your face and your knees in the breeze.
moxie,
i hope you recycled properly, round here we put them to bed in a sink hole with a 50# sack of lime for a pillow.
icu4dzs,
sweet bike, i love older models. my dream basket-case is a '64 pan with a suicide shifter, by the time i find it i'll probably be too busted up to kick-start the darn thing. super sweet shop setups! i've got the woodworking coverd here on the farm but any metal works, (lathe milling or welding) i have to drag into work with me.
joel,
i just put a new os on both lil mama's and my computers. i havent had a chance to get pix and music and e-books off the backup hard drive yet.... soon come mon.

cheers

doc

I'd better not show these to my hubby, he'd be so jealous!

Doc's "better half" here! :D

One of the many reasons that I'm such a keeper is that I do have some pix stashed on photobucket! ;)

Oh, I don't smoke very often. About as much as I drink. That's maybe....every 2 or 3 years. I had just found that a good see-gar goes well with some nice smooth alchohol.

I found out, a long time ago...that I have a very high tolerance for meds etc.....takes quite a bit of the strong stuff to even get a mild buzz. And that is gone in a poof. Just this past Nov, when I went to the ER for a kidney stone......they gave me an intramuscular injection of Dilauded. It wore off in 1 hour. DH said, when he got one..a few years back...he was goofy for the whole 6 hours.


So, anyways.....I'll just sit back and read and watch. I like "man caves" ..... :pop :bun
