Yeah... I am dying to move down there. It will be another 5 weeks or so though. In that time I have to come up with the TV and recliners.

Guess it's time for me to book my flight south to help ya test out the smoke eater!

It has been a while since I have posted an update to the man cave project. We have finally moved in the house and while there are still lots of little things to do I figured I should show the progress:

View from the door that goes outside to the side of the house where the herf barn will be. Yes, that is a WINE cooler in between the two vinos.

View from over by the Vinos looking out the windows. I have only come up with one recliner so far. When I get another one the patio chaise lounger will go.

The view from my recliner!!! It is a 40 inch Sony Bravia with a HD DVR. I have never had a TV larger than 32 inches and never had a DVR. I am really stoked about this set up!

The room has a vent for heat/air, but it just isn't staying cool enough. Yesterday I bought a freestanding AC unit that should cool the room to true cave likeness! I will get the venting installed this week... but let me officially say...

Smokin Gator's man cave is open for visitors!!!!

Come one, come all!!

We are in Ocala which is about 30 miles south of Gainesville and about 90 miles north of Orlando. It is pretty much in the center of the state east to west and I-75 is about 8 miles from the house.

Very nice cave man.... It needs some LSU flavor though!

marge796 · 06-14-2009, 08:19 AM
