Pole barn seating

Geo-TH,In · Feb 24, 2022

Thought those YT members who overhaul tractor and truck engine would like to make some neat pole barn seating.

With cup holders too.

I saw these seats at a place we frequent when fishing in Leesburg, Florida. Try their loaded spud,(potato). Good.

No relation.

I was wondering this morning if you were still in Florida. Hows the fishing?

Geo-TH,In · Feb 24, 2022

Fishing was great and fresh fried crappie taste good too. Next year I plan to go in middle of January.
I decided to call it quits on Monday, winds 10-15 make the lake too ruff. Still windy.
I need to join weight watchers or buy bigger shirts..

Better stay down there awhile the weather is crappy up here!

Need a crane to move them as heavy as they would be. Fl and Fish suck to eat or go to. Been to FL many times not for me. Fish just throw it back or use for coon bait. Hate fish. Been down I95 from GA line to Miami across Gator alley and back up and down through the gut on 27 and 301 out the panhandle to Tallahassee to. You can have FL.

I have 2 sisters. One loves to fish, the other sister loves to have a neighborhood fish fry. My worst day fishing in Florida during the winter beats my best day pushing snow in Indiana. 80 degree days beats 20 degree days anytime. Both sisters are good cooks.

I figured out how to avoid going through Atlanta, Birmingham and Chattanooga. Also have a way to buy pass the mess in Nashville.
I love Google maps and Lenovo Chromebook. I just put the cursor on map and drag the route.

I wouldn't go to Florida if it weren't for my sisters living there.
Been going to Florida in winter for past 50 years.
Nice place to visit, wouldn't want to live there full time.
Nothing beats the taste of fresh fried Crappie.

I have a dentist and DR appointment, so I had no choice but to return. Also have to return to take care of business. Wish I could count on one of my kids to take care my business but they have their own lives and live near Indy.

Sounds like you had a great time!!Good for you!!!!

Geo-TH,In · Feb 24, 2022

I posted pole barn seats hoping to give you ideas how to expand your woodworking projects including metal with your wood.
You could make a tractor using flywheels and timing gears as tires and steering wheel..
Need to find a friend who overhauls engines.
Yes we had loads of fun. I love to spend time with my sister as much as I do fishing..It's an annual event. Fishing is only good in winter and in calm water.

I thought it was the dryer that was making my britches shrink...I found out that it was the fridge.

Wish you would drag your route through here! Be a fun to meet up and visit! Maybe next year??

jm. · Feb 24, 2022

You want meet a finder fellow, sat and talked for three hours day before yesterday as he was returning north. For as I know he is the only YT er that I have met personally.

CG. Ya, but do you hate fish?

grandpa Love · Feb 24, 2022

Hope we can meet up one day. You live close enough!

Geo-TH,In · Feb 24, 2022

What town do you live next to?
My best route only hits the NE corner of Al.
I refuse to go through Berminninham spaghetti bowl.
If I could post my route, I would..

FLOLDFORD · Feb 24, 2022

Thanks I'll be glad to keep it! Too many people moving down here now from up north. You can keep your snow and ice up there. And the fact that you hate fish just leaves more for myself and George!

Geo-TH,In · Feb 24, 2022

Gp,
Here's my route. I meet JM at Clarksville.
Take 155 around Nashville.
Head south on I59

10 miles before Chattanooga.
Then get off interstates until we connect it I75 avoiding Atlanta. Adds about 3 hours to trip. We use 2 days to travel. Did 700 miles on the first day. Well worth staying away from crazy drivers that use ever lane and makes unsaved driving.
I watch my mirror for the craziness. I saw a woman run a car in the HOV off the road. She had no business in that lane because she was the only one in the car.

I can't believe how much northern wealth is buying homes in the Villages. There are over 100 villages. Construction is going full speed. They can't build homes fast enough.
People I know are paying cash for $500k plus homes.

FLOLDFORD · Feb 24, 2022

It's the same way in my area. Most of the people moving here are from the northeast and California. Housing market has doubled here in the last 2 years. And don't even think about trying to hire a contractor to do any kind of work. Most are scheduled out for the next 6 months and not agreeing to do anymore work anytime soon.

I just got in early this morning from my yearly week visit down their. My oldest daughter has been there in Jacksonville along with my son for over 25 years. It gets crazier down there ever year. I've rode my motorcycle down the east coast to key West and back up the West coast more than once over the years and did it for the last time two years ago, never again. It was nuts last week just driving my rental car from Jacksonville to visit my two brothers who both live in the villages. I have another brother in Venice but he is thinking of selling his winter home there and getting out. They both love it there in the villages but not for me. Although I will say it was awful nice getting a break from the winter here in Mi. as I think it hit eighty everyday I was in Fl. along with the bright sun shine.

wilson ind · Feb 24, 2022

George we also have some villages. Coalmont coalcity and others. Dont Florida villiage have names?

Geo-TH,In · Feb 24, 2022

Yes they have names. A man named Morse picked the names of the villages and roads. To get to where
BIL lives we turn on Morse Road....
Google Florida Villages and you can read about them. The first Village was a retirement trailer park. Now there are over 100 different Villages. Thousands of new homes sold each year..
All gated HOA communities.

Sorry but I see nothing fun or "neat" in that mess. Looks like some ancient torture device. My family would have me declared insane if I made that, and they would have a point.

4520BW · Feb 24, 2022

Crappie will be biting good here in a month or so. Our ponds froze a good 6 inches but it was to cold and windy for me to fish.

DoubleO7 · Feb 24, 2022

If you hate Florida so much, how come it took so many trips and meandering all over Florida to get to the hate level for Florida now??

Stay where ever you are now please.

Hayfarmer · Feb 24, 2022

I think it looks neat, probably heavy but you don't have to move it much. I have seen many benches built with pickup tail gate as back. I imagine they would be heavy also.

Crazy Horse · Feb 24, 2022

So Cat Guy ..... tell us how you feel about Florida ..... ha, you break me up with your comments sometimes, seriously !!! I mean really, who cares ????

john in la · Feb 24, 2022

At least you admit you do not like Florida.
Lot better than them other northerners that come down here and try to tell us how they did xyz in the north.

Rag-packer · Feb 24, 2022
