Do you need a scope to see the ground?

Do you get a nosebleed?

Do you invite your friends over to play football in it?

I've said many times how hubby goes to the extreme.

We're calling this the "Guest Cottage".

*sigh*

I'll send pics when he runs electricity & plumbing to it....

Is that you?

Are you/they about to bungee jump?

That's not a deerstand - that's a frickin' fortress. You could have a really good keg party up there, but I fear for the drunks as they attempt to climb down the ladder.

I don’t s’pose your hubby builds catapults? I’m lookin’ for an efficient way to dispose of a body down near the everglades…






:Wha:


I prolly shouldn’t be posting that.

I once had some friends who built a $10,000 (this in late 1970s dollars) "goose pit" for hunting ducks and geese that included a refrigerator (for their beer) and a TV!

I have to say that that's about the most substantial deer stand I've ever seen. That should last him many a season . . . if the termits don't eat it. ;-)

We're taking the drunks into account. I'm sure there is a nice wide spiral staircase in the works. Yanno... it has to be convenient to get the furniture up there.

I was going to wait till it was done to post - but I just couldn't keep this beauty to myself anymore.

It would be a lot of fun to put people in the trebuchet and see if they could be fired up into the deerstand.

Well...I think it would be fun.

I volunteer Leuk.

You should paint a name on it. Fort Boondoggle, or something.

Or maybe a sign: "Welcome, UFO Aliens"

The first time he goes up there to hunt . . . sneak up and take his ladder away and don't give it back until he promises to buy the new living room furniture you've been wanting.

I ain't letting my hubs see this thread. The man is still in raptures over the blind I built him up in the woods. If he sees this thread...I'm in trouble.
