Well, fall is in the air and I am getting ready to start enjoying the fruits of my labor! I still have some additional things to complete but am getting ready to start enjoying the Wreck Room (the wife calls it) or Mans Room (As I like to call it). Figured I would share some pictures for everyone to look at! If anyone is ever in the area please feel free to drop in and have a drink!!

Sorry for the small pics, didnt want to bog everyone down!

Favorite Large Sign!


Into the 9-5 room, not the most enjoyable area

coming upstairs


Upstairs


Best place to be, behind the bar!!


Thanks All!

Wow! Thanks for sharing those pictures, Blake. I'm digging all the cool stuff and the architecture of the building's roof structure. You've got guys all over wishing for a space like that. If you were colser, I'd be right over.

Cool shed or barn!!, are you right in B'ham or out in the country??. I might end up/down there one day. Looks really good, but you may need strip lights like on a semi on them diagonal struts, a fellow could miss those after a few rodeo pops, me thinks....dodogas

Thanks everyone for all the compliments! You all are invited to swing by whenever! I am out in the county, away from the political permit required zone

The barn is an old Hip Roof barn in excellent structural shape. I have been rennovating the barn and will start next spring on the downstairs of the barn, putting in bathrooms, kitchen and the most important room, a bunk house room so that people can sleep off the rodeo pops!

Thanks Guys!

That BARN was built back when the farmer spent more on the barn, than he did for a house. Take care of the livestock and the livestock will take care of the farmer.

How is the Barn-Mahal holding up in the torrential rains, or did it flood and now it looks like the Ark-Mahal???
If its flooding put on the tin pants and start loading up every kind of pumps (in pairs) and get ready for 40 days away from land..could end up on Mt Saint Helens if the rain keeps up..LOL
