Well, I did it. I'm now a desert rat.

Sweet garage.

 

[Buoy]

I'll get some pics up when I have both trucks and the boat in there.
There is actually room to put a helo pad on the roof...
My wife is gonna kill me...

Just what I need - another very expensive toy that requires 40 hrs a week maintenanceuke::dupe:

Let me get it organized, and get the boat in there.
I'm already thinking I need to plumb the whole garage for "shop air".
There is already plenty of lighting, and outlets everywhere.
Two seperate 220 outlets.

I already have the beer fridge, and the meat locker freezer in there.

Still working out my plan on installing the "dumb-waiter" in the garage to go up to the kitchen.
I'll actually be able to fit both my Avalanche, the Wife's H3, and the boat and still have space to work and move around.
16x8 double door, 10x8 single door, and 8' of wall inbetween them.
Entire garage is 46x26.
10 yrs ago I was living in a single-wide trailer for a little while that could fit three of just in the garage.
When you coming out Bobcat?

I like it.....As you know I'm not much of a drinker

My version of American Gothic

Got the new pool table this weekend, and the new dining room set.
The place is ready for a party!!
Let me know when you hooligans want to come out and wrestle the rattlesnakes.
(haven't actually seen any rattlers, but coyotes a'plenty, and the errant gila monster)

And yes, from the pic, I still have a left arm ( I didn't go all Rick Allen) I just think I had a beer in my left hand.
At least that is a likely scenario.

I can see why you started with the rake first.
That lawn looks like sh*t.

 

[Bobcat]

Those rocks are going to play hell on the riding mower

 

[old377guy]

Beautiful setup you've got there Buoy!

 

[JJ Apache]

You two look so happy!! A big congrats!

 

[Buoy]

Beautiful setup you've got there Buoy!

Thanks!
I love it! I don't intend on ever leaving.
The door is open to all my offshore friends passing through the desert - so anyone thinking of making it to Havasu, let me know.

You two look so happy!! A big congrats!

Thanks Jan.
Yeah, we really are. But, we were happy to be together back in the single-wide. This is just over the top.
Beyond our dreams.
My folks must think I'm nailing a Rockefeller or something to pull this off, but the reality is I would have been deeper buying a house in a subdivision with an HOA.
But then again, we're entering rattlesnake season...
I have my snakeskin boots by the front door - maybe that will be a deterent of "don't mess with this guy". or, it could turn into a snake wanting to mate with my right foot

Yeah, the yard guy is pissed:sifone:

 

[JJ Apache]

Start shaking out your footwear!!

 

[Buoy]

100% moved in!!!
It's done, it's over!
The scene I've been waiting for has been both trucks in the garage with the boat.
Didn't realize that I'd still have room for a sofa, recliner, a 32" TV, and all my tool chests and work benches.

Anyone want to get rid of some offshore posters??
I have a staple gun and plenty of wall space...

 

[Bobcat]

Looks great Tim!

 

[Buoy]

Thanks Bud!
Let me know when you want to come out and see if a Bobcat can tangle with a coyote or a Javelina.
I think Sean is coming out in about a month - that's the start of a party...

 

[rschap1]

Congrats

I haven't been to the desert in 20 years ......can we shoot stuff ?

out here, we can do just about anything we want.
Almost everyone is carrying a gun, you just don't know it.
I have a wash on the property that is gonna make a great shooting range.
Would you like to book a room?:cheers2:

 

[Bobcat]

As you know....I'm pretty selective about my Beer........nothing that costs more than 12 bucks an 18 !

 

[Buoy]

I'm currently payin $13.99 for a 30 cube.
People comment when they see me pushing a cart with 3 or 4 of them in it...
I just don't want to have to run into town again tomorrow.
