    1) I love beer
    2) Boxers are my breed of choice for 25 yrs-currently have 1 boxer and 1 "accidental" half-boxer/half-husky but I love all dogs, period-
    3) Bogydave-I know Kingwood and Preston Co, my late gf was one of the first lot owners in Alpine Lake back in the 70's, but Im just south of Charleston, where the big bucks roam

    Thanks again to all, so muc

    Fanatical1-I have a rather large farm that I only utilize for timber and whitetail management-and of course I scrounge all I can, wherever I can---only drop dead, diseased and hazardous, except for Ash....always looking for some good ash...;)

    Well, kinda Bogy-If you look between the stack dividers, hanging upside down are 2 8pt racks-maybe I should move them to the front of the 4x4 posts? They are not too large-I have others but they are inside-bowhunting is another passion, for another day-Man I cant get over how nice everyone is here but I am not surprised, at all

    Yes sir, the thought has crossed my mind-but I've sunk a ton in the old girl lately just because she suits my needs-haul wood, dogs and deer...in that order...just have to be careful loading because the road from there to home is not bad, but I could use one for sure-

    Sorry to disappoint you Ashwatcher, but the wood shed in my avatar is not my real woodshed, it is my fantasy land woodshed. My real one,which is much less impressive by the way, is pictured below. Yours looks amazing though!

    There is nothing unimpressive about your woodshed sir-to the contrary, it looks well built and well-stocked-I built my in 2010 after much planning and design thoughts gathered from many-It does have, and I highly recommend, expanded metal floor, shadow boarded ends and of course, faces south---I throw uglies in between the rows but air flow stays constant-and the racks are for Bogydave image.jpg image.jpg
