Hey Larry is that house big enough for a man as tall as you? :D

Nice..looks like a little paint work and it should look good.

Guess we won't be seeing you around much anymore :D

I was thinking the same thing about paint work!
I think the green exterior color has to go!
Gray with black trim would look great!!!

Bigfish,

NIce, Kind of reminds me of that Green Death plug you made.

Seriously, can't go wrong with a cape. You can always add on and make it look good.

Ok, now you're a homeowner :devil:

Those shingles are splitting and looking thin...

Your shutters are peeling...

The roof may look great but it leaks, you just don't know it...

Your chimney needs pointing...oh, and a stainless liner...

Those shrubs need to be cut back, again, again!

The grass has grubs...

The boiler is leaking, it needs to be replaced...

Your electrical service isn't to code, there's a fire hazard to fix...

Your septic backing up...

The livingroom floor is soaked with cat urine...wait till it's humid...

The appliances all need to be replaced...yes, she wants stainless...

Your old bed doesn't fit into the new bedroom...

Actually, all your furniture has to go...none of it looks good anymore...

That big tree behind the house is about to fall down...

Your toilet isn't vented properly, it's gonna be a cloggin...

Don't worry there will still be time left over to fish :faga:

Congrats, it looks great :cheers:

Spence....nothing will stop me from fishing....NOTHING! :kewl:

The shingles are worn and cracked and need replacing along with the trim.....next spring!

Gutters are new and aluminum!

Roof is spankin' new!

Chimney is mint, fireplace was never used and is clean and the top has a cap brand new!

Shrubs trimmed? Whatever...when I get to them!

The grass has grubs? Can I get them any ketchup?

Boiler is new!

Elecrical is great with a new breaker panel!

Septic backing up? Maybe....but the seller must put in a new septic at a cost of $24,000.00 before we close....and its a beauty!

All hardwood throughout....and is in good shape!

Appliances...we have new ones.....4 years ago that are going with us.....kitchen will be gutted, wall between kitchen and dining room coming down to make bigger kitchen area....who uses dining rooms any more? And she does want a Sub-Zero stainless monster....ok by me!

I have a saw....the bed will fit one way or the other!

We just bought a new living room set that will fit and look great....other than that...we don't have much furniture!

Tree behind us does not belong to us and can't reach the house!

Toilet vents fine but bathroom is disgusing and in need of updating....badly!

I will fish the season out and have all winter to work on the house....perfect timing!

How does that all sound?

And she does want a Sub-Zero stainless monster....ok by me!
If you give me the chance, I'll be I can talk her out of it :hihi:

Seriously, I wouldn't think of a Sub-Zero for that house...for many reasons...

Larry,

DO NOT, but a SUB-ZERO brand fridge when you redo the kitchen. Buy the biggest brand name you can find, GE Maytag etc. The Subs are expensive and if you ever need it fixed because it is not working properly it is expensive and the parts aren't readily availible.

My Maytag wasn't defrosting right. Had an appliance guy come it to put in a new component. He told me a a costumer with a SZ that they had parts on order for the last 9 months!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Beamie.....fortunately they will prove way too rich for our blood......I don't see the need for such a refridgerator.....I am sure our 4 year old fridge will be with us for quite awhile......besides....I might need to buy a VS! :hidin:

A house is made with walls and beams. A home is made with love and dreams.

Best of luck Larry, theres nothin like have your own home.

BigFish

Thanks Goose.....be it ever so humble, there is no place like plug.....I mean home! ;)

congrads....there is nothing like owning your own (er....should I saying owning the LOAN to own the HOME.. :) ) while there is always something to be fixed or tended to I wouldnt trade it for the world!

a year and a half ago we reached our dream after much renting & dreaming. The first thing we did after the closing was to run home and kick (but not too hard) the wall!!!!! Just because it was ours and we could!!!!!

looks real nice BFL!
Now you are even closer to me.
I paid through the nose to stay in Scituate. How sore is your wallet?

so where are the shots of the new mancave?

BigFish
08-15-2005, 11:56 AM
No shots yet and we got a great deal....house even appraised for more than we paid! :wiggle:

i like it especially because its green....

natures most perfect color... as its cool in the summer time
and warm in the winter time...

i think the little deck should go bye bye so BIGFISH has
a place to grill bigfish

so.... just for fun, here's what a bigger deck would look like
instead

see below photo

BigFish
08-15-2005, 12:58 PM
Thats a nice picture Raven but my man-cave is just out of the photoframe where you have the deck placed......the bulkhead is also around the corner and it is too high to run a deck around the back which is what we would like so we might put one on the other back corner and put a door coming from the Den. ;)

FishChick

Thanks everyone!!! We are very excited!! Can't wait to get BigFish working on it... How about September??? That's not a bad time, right? :doh:

As far as the sub zero fridge...I don't want a sub zero I just want one with a french door and the freezer on the bottom. Stainless (maybe).

:thanks:
