This is the one I built in 2018, after putting in our new patio. It is framed with pressure treated wood and sided with concrete panels on 3 sides and a shower curtain on the 4th. The top is cast in place concrete and has an embedded utility sink. During parties, I plug the sink drain, fill...
I want to buy a trolling motor that will keep my boat on a specific spot when fishing in a current. Does anyone have a recommendation for a very good unit? Here is where I have been looking: Search Products | West Marine

I’ve been into photography since the 4th grade (1966). A bunch of years ago, I decided that just taking the photos, without sharing the memories with friends and family was just not very rewarding. I use photos that I took during each year and make a montage of them. We send them out as our...
I wonder what is going on with precious metals at this time? Gold just hit $2,055 an ounce. Silver is near a new record as well at $27.55. Usually, this signals a huge horrific event is on the way, like a global catastrophe.
Anyone have an idea about what is behind this phenomenon?
You lose power for 24 hours or more, and then you realize how thin is the veneer of civilization that we actually live in. It’s all fun and games until the lights go out. We got hit yesterday with a 100+ MPH wind shear event yesterday and the lights went out. Since our neighborhood only has...
My wife and I joined a drive-by parade today for Floyd, a WWII veteran. He turned 100 years old today and his family had to cancel his party due to the ‘rona. So his buds in the VFW and American Legion organized a last minute parade by his house this afternoon. We drove with our top down and...
I use the scene from Iron Man 2 when he flies into the convention with the dancing girls and the fireworks going off to demo my home theater. Lots of bass and pretty girls dancing. I don’t have 7.1 like you do, but 1,000 watts into a Sony 5.1 really rocks the room. 125” diagonal is just the...
i just put together this little C51 clock kit in about 20 minutes. It costs less than $2 and it gave me a great sense of accomplishment on this rainy Sunday afternoon. I’ve assembled about a half dozen kits from infrared relay controller switch to variable voltage power supply. Anyone else...
It’s been another great year for us. Two cruises, scuba diving, picnics with friends and family- it can’t get any better than that! We hope that you all had a great year and blessings too!
Also sending our wishes for a Happy New Year to you and your family as well!
We had pizza tonight and my wife let Lucy “lick” the box. When she turned back a minute later, this is what the wife found. I guess that Lucy really likes pizza! At least the cardboard is high in fiber and low in calories.
What do your pals do when not constantly watched?
We built a new patio late last year and part of the design was a Tiki Bar. Since I am the builder, it has come in dribs and drabs as I get time. Well, it is almost finished. I love how my vision is coming to reality. What do you think and show us what you got?
You all (except Joey) missed my birthday yesterday. :soapbox::drama: Oh well, I still love you.
Maybe I am getting too sentimental in my old age, but I still had a great birthday scuba diving in St. Thomas. Saw three sea turtles and a sting ray, inter alia. And I survived to tell the tale...
Here it is: https://www.washingtontimes.com/quiz/2015/feb/11/us-citizenship-test-could-you-pass/#question-1
Please don’t make this political. This is an educational quiz - how much do you know about our government and its history?
Roughly 35 by 40 feet. EP Henry pavers with a bench wall with columns in one corner with a pergola. I will install the pergola myself and add three retractable awnings on it (we're light skinned sunburn-prone people). I will add a future gas fire table and will build a curved bar for it too...
My thanks sent to snakeoil24 for upgrading me to gold! What a nice surprise to receive from another member. It's time for me to pay it forward.
THANKS snakeoil!!!
what is this car worth? It is owned by a non-car guy and he just wants to get rid of it. It had been parked for probably close to 30 years. It comes with a title, 360 engine and it seems to be fully complete. It only has 66,000 miles on it too. What should it be worth?
Is this a C body?
Show us your snow plows. Here is mine. It is a 1990 Jeep Cherokee Laredo 4 wheel drive auto with antilock brakes. My father-in-law gave it to me after my sister-in-law totaled it. She went through a stop sign and a car coming from the side ripped off the front bumper and grille. The...
