A converted tobacco drying barn, Blackwell Cabin has a loft, a kitchen, 1 & 1/2 half baths, a fireplace and a front porch. As most folks eneter & leave via the back door, the porch is usued mostly for storage. Brick floors and minimal draperies also the use of weed-whackers and leaf blowers the tools of choice for clean-up. The site of a semi-annual celebration of all things manly (horse shoes, poker, target practice and football watching (basketball in the spring)), Blackwell Cabin is a haven for men to be men. Any consideration for your contest would be greatly appreciated and might even earn some lucky guy from your firm/group an invitation to our next outing.

I need something big in a big man cave. What is it with all these little nick naks and no big TV or even a place for my pork skins?
—Carlos E. of Houston, TX
Before my son arrived, I had a great man cave.
But the changes occurring since he was born
Have been like a gigantic tidal wave.
My son lives in comfort
While Im in the lanai.
If I want to watch any sports on TV
I peak through the window with one eye.
My only seat is a camp chair
So if I have my buddies over,
The only seats available are
The two bicycles in the corner.
I am an outdoorsy guy
But this is just too much!
I don't have a man cave anymore
It's more like a rabbit hutch.—Clare R. of Naples, FL

The WIFE has taken over the big tv. Not only am I without the remote, but she has THE BIG CHAIR too. I must win this contest to recoup my manhood.—Stephen T. of Haines City, FL
