When I lived in Indiana, I didn't spend enough time in Southern
Indiana. Mostly because I didn't have a licens most of the time, and
not a car, most of the time I had a license.

I wouldn't mind making one, but I'm never going to make 6 (that
already have holes in the top) or 12 (counting the ones that don't get
sun now that the surrounding trees are taller) or about 30 (if I did
all of them). Too many other things to do, when they would only cost
a couple dollars each if I could only find them.
It's been 27 years and they're in pretty good condition, at least
above ground. If they can look good for 39 more years, I'll be 98
years old and dead or near dead. But I would still buy a set of 30 if
I could find them.
