Re: Single/Divorced Men.....Dream Home
An 800 sq/ft vinyl sided house on 2 acres???
You're nuts!! How about a 3500 sq/ft real log cabin (no kit!), on a lake, smack in the middle of 150 acres. A 2500 sq/ft garage/shop with 2 lifts, bass boat sleeping space and a motorcycle wing off to one side. And a 5 acre motocross track a few hundred yards behind the house. That'd be a start. Call me high mantenance.

Re: Single/Divorced Men.....Dream Home
I think a home without a woman is just plain wrong . But if I was to answer this question without haste it would be a stabbin cabin in McCall Idaho with 48x48 loft and entry with arched timbers and a 155 C.F cooler with every brand of beer in it known to 'MAN"

Re: Single/Divorced Men.....Dream Home
Good idea guys..................but not what I'm looking for
The cabin........would love one but its a waste of wood the base boats and cars................would love them if someone gave them to me..........................hoever the idea is not to have to work as much........but please feel free to go into debt as far as your creditors will let you I love the campany of females.........................but would rather have that kind of comapny on the weekend........................the older I older i get the more attractive a woodstove and black lab sound................at least i can put the Lab outside if he wines to much. Keep the coments coming.........................I like your ideas |

Re: Single/Divorced Men.....Dream Home
Outside make it concrete and inside completely stainless steel with a power washer wand hooked to a central pump in everyroom. No maintenance outside and inside cleaning is done as fast as you can pull the trigger:p

Re: Single/Divorced Men.....Dream Home
IHI, you beat me to it but forgot the floor drains. LOL
The ideal home is a boat. You're always waterfront, can change the scenery anytime you like, there's nearly always a bar nearby and most women are intrigued by the lifestyle. If they get too intrigued, there is always casting off in the moonlight.

Re: Single/Divorced Men.....Dream Home
Amazing..... Neal prefers cuddling up in front of a wood stove with a black lap instead of a woman and Christine is calling Flor and Tom the dogs.
A home......hmm....if I was single?......A roll away in the alley behind a topless bar. Bob
