    Purchased a 2nd hole in the water to throw my money into

    I'm looking for suggestions on where to go on a fishing trip

    hahaha. Problem with that is, you have to go miles off shore to get anything decent, and I can't do that in my 14' tinboat.

    I'm looking for suggestions on where to go on a fishing trip

    I want to take my dad on another fishing trip. Year before last we went to Kentucky Lake, in Eastern Kentucky. Last year we spent a week at Lake Cumberland fishing for trout in the Cumberland River and did a striper fishing charter in the lake. I want to do something fun again this year...

    Haven't been able to get to my boat or had time to fish...

    Because I've been doing a massive master bathroom project! I refinanced my house in July and got about $10k in Equity out. The upstairs of my house is only partially the size of the downstairs. Its just 2 rooms, you walk up the stairs into one room, then walk through a door into the master...

    How to make your own planer boards for cheaper than retail

    I've not actually taken them out yet! I'm going to do so on Sunday. That pool noodle I used is super thick and the 5 foot section is meant to float a fat lady jazzercising in a pool. I'd say it could hold up a few ounces easily.

    A message to the "guests" that are often reading here...

    Hate to burst anyone's bubble, but a high portion of those "guests" are web crawling bots. Mostly gathering statistics for various search engines, companies, things like that. You would be really surprised at how much is going on under the covers of the internet with automated tools like this. A...

    Check out my new houseboat!

    3 inches of rain in 2 hours. Some places got up to an inch in 15 minutes. And my backyard is downhill for about 4 blocks in my town, everything drains right into it. Luckily, we have good storm sewers and my backyard is setup with good drainage and french drains that dump the water really...

    Yeti Knockoffs

    I guarantee you they are being made side by side in some factory over in China. My Ozark Trail tumbler is great. Perfect for beer when we're camping.

    Kind tinnish? Lets talk Pontoon boats

    I had a guy contact me that wants to trade me a 25 foot pontoon boat for my popup camper I'm selling. I did some research, and my 14' Sea Nymph is worth the same amount as my camper, so I could sell it, and basically it would be like upgrading my boat for free. Its a 25' with a 75 hp Evinrude...

    Went to refill a propane tank at the local RV dealer....

    I think so. Its weird, isn't it? I guess its an emergency exit. Its just like a half size door. I'm going to have to put a latch on it on the outside. My 5 year olds like to go exploring. Last year we went to a popup camper rally at Hocking Hills state park. I'm not going to lie, I imbibed a bit...

    Went to refill a propane tank at the local RV dealer....

    If you aren't hiking the applachian trail with nothing but a bottle of water, a compass and old sock to cover your dingdong, then its not real camping.

    Went to refill a propane tank at the local RV dealer....

    Yeah, I bought my popup for $2000. Fixed some rot in it, flipped the axle and put on better wheels and tires. I have someone coming to look at it for $2100.

    This has 2 30's. Should be enough to last us 2 years at the rate we make trips.
