Title: Gertie,s new home..
Post by: Lucky_Lou on May 13, 2016, 02:26:20 PM
I have been working on my "Man Cave" Project.. a new home for Gertie/ workshop/ retreat.   3 years in the thinking and 7 months in the doing on and off. It contains the essentials for life,  bar a nice work bench complete with loading station a "recreational" area and bike garage.
To celebrate I am having a get together with a few "Cowboy" friends to sample the fine beers of the Spoetzl  brewery + some "Lesser" quality American brews and a Texas theme night next weekend. I any of our Texas members have any recipe suggestions for the buffet I would like to see them. I looks deceiving as I made the door oversize for ease of access.

Very nice, Lou/Mike. Anything barbecued slowly over a bed of oak coals would be Texas appropriate. Post up your Grand Opening party pics; those after the Shiner has been consumed.

Lou, I like what you've done with the place.  Only thing missing is a fire pit to make your camp coffee and buttermilk biscuits.

Finished off the gun rack with a "Texas Rangers" Hall of Fame, James B Hawkins is my favourite, he doesn't look like the kind of man to mess with.
