The ultimate ManCave for rural homeowners

One part tree house, one part cabin, and one part wildlife/nature observation outpost. Comes complete with good lookin' dog.

Man, I wish I had something like that.

That's just what I've been thinking about,,,well maybe not that luxurious but raised and heated anyway. Found a good spot, just need to locate some telephone poles to sink. Multi purpose facility,,,,outstanding,,,,appears to have quite a view,,,16 feet sq.? ,,,

Is there pics of the inside?

A Willie Pete or a couple incendiary rounds and your toasted..

Besides could you imagine dragging your woman or a brontosaurus up a rope ladder after you clubbed them.. No thanks.

Is that yours LL??? I like it. A lot.

Sadly, no.

I used to do a lot of birdwatching and "wildlife safari" stuff in AZ, so always wanted something like it, though.

Your military years colored your perception of the civvie world, I think.

Also, are you saying your wife is the size of a brontosaurus?

Looks like a great place to hole up and make valiant last stand!

Yeah, unless PB comes around with some Willy Petes, incendiaries, or Brontosours.....

Sweet! I love the idea. Check out a coffee table book - Private Towers by James Grayson Trulove, isbn 0-06-059447-0 - it has a whole bunch of similar towers in both rural and urban settings. The idea of being King Of Your Domain, Looking Out From On High sounds great.

I'll take it! That is awesome! Only I'd rather have my St. Bernard hangin' around than that husky/malamute or whatever it may be.

Looks like I need to move to Hoth. Got a spare cot? Lol. Very, very nice setup you got there. I'm purple with envy. My wife won't let me build a man cave.

Contrary to pop culture I think you would find you woman more womanly if you grew some nads and acted like a man...

WTF happened manhood?

When Vashti insulted King Xerxes by not showing up at his party his friends demanded he kill her so their old lasts wouldn't start acting a fool.
I don't advocate killing her.. But I do think you need to claim a room, a cabinet , the bottom corner of a closet... Something.
Show some life.

PB, this 1554's for you!

I'm not certain of this but didn't a eunuch "Aspamitres" kill Xerxes?

I don't know.. But I'd rather be a dead man with a smile.

Note to self: After shopping, washing dishes, changing the diapers- look for long lost nads...Hahahaha.

Hey a real man washes the dishes..
There is a diff between being a slothful bore and being a man.

A real man leads by example, takes initiative, tackles problems, provides his woman with security (both physically and emotionally), does share the work load. The Feminazi's have beaten the man down to the point that we don't even seem to know what a real man is.. And we think that manhood is somehow bad.. Ward didn't beg June for a corner to store his pipe, I'm not going to either. You can't be a man with out being a gentleman, but conversely you can't be a gentleman without being a man.. Man up fellers.
That house is yours too man.. I'm not saying be an ass about it, but I am saying let her know in clearly defined terms that you will have your space (too).. don't fight, don't argue, just tell her what your doing and do it. she will initially be shocked, she's going to pout, she's going to act like a 10 year old for awhile because you've never asserted your rights.. but she will adjust.. and maybe when you see how it works you will get that spark bro..

Totally agree dude. Leading by example, integrity, honesty. You can´t give anything you don´t have either. Very much in keeping with the Cesar Milan ideas from another thread. Also you deserve your space, as does anyone. I´ve made my studio into my "space" here at home. Went so far as to get them their own computers so that the need for them using one would not encroach on my sanctity. Everyones happy.... No room for a treehouse though in Mexico City, otherwise I´d be working on it now.

I understand guys and I think I stated things too simply. My wife would love nothing more than for me to have a man cave to keep all my stuff. Problem is money and space. Our house us too small now that we have a baby. I keep my pipes and tobacco in a couple of places but we need to go through our house and get rid of some crap. I'd love to build a man cave in my back yard and my wife would rather not spend the money and get the he'll out of the neighborhood. Of course that is easier said than done in this horrible market. I'll get my man cave, but I'll have to wait until we can sell our small house.

Thanks for all the comments. I hope you all enjoy the superbowl this weekend.

Hey, maybe you can take before and after photos of the cleanup/de-clutter event like they do on TV....I bet you can make a dedicated spot...I'll bet one testicle on it.
