Default I finally have a garage....
What a beautiful thing it is

No more condo life, a slight upgrade to a town home though

Got a workbench today from lowes. Can finally store my tools in a drawer instead of a box.

Not the biggest garage but it works for now

Obligatory pics;

Very nice. Always good to be able to keep your ride off the street. Not much of an issue where you live but yesterday morning it was 12 degrees where I live when I went to leave for work. However it was 50 degrees in my garage when I started the car.

I'm not sure yet. The 11th is my Mom's B-day so need to find out what plans are for that.

BTW my new house is 12 mins from yours

Congrats. It is always nice to have the garage to tinker and keep the car clean. We have a three car garage and I want to add a 40X60 pole barn with lift eventually.

You are way behind I moved out of the dorms back in July into a condo in Naples where I was alone. Now I was able to get this town home pretty close to the university. I am splitting it with a friend. Don't mind him as a room mate, the others not so much

It looks like you have a nice setup going. Being able to park in a garage is nice.
