                Ditto on what Tim said! 8) ;) 

i'd love a bigger garage. My one-car is getting cramped with the bikes.

          I hear that!  MY one-car is filled with "runover" from the house AND bike stuff! ::) I do have a 12 x 14 building out back that is stuffed also. BTW, that 12 x 14 is in pretty bad need of some roof and siding repairs. HMMM, I may just have to see if I can manage to get a little cash (not a lot, in my situation, mind you) gathered and see if I can do a little enlarging (not as big or as fancy as seaweb's) to make things a little better. If I start saving NOW, it'll still be a little while before I can do anything though. I doubt that it'll be anything worth doing a thread on though, so I'll just enjoy this one. ;)

I don't think a Lincoln will do where he's at.

Well lets see..........
.................We buried the man hole cover for my cistern so he doesn't look for a smidg of cistern "over head" build issues.

................We kind of had to guess about property allowances due to the rural nature of things around here.
Installed our own pegs & strings to make things look professional and all ;D

I may have left a loose re-bar tie ?????????   Perhaps he will find that ;D

I thought you lived in Canada.  Is that some sort of tropical palm tree in the yard?  Is global warming that bad already?

Paypal Account for "Mariah shoe fund" is dkingram@shaw.ca

Here's the job site today, part 1 of drainage done. Tomorrow we do it again for collection of roof water for cistern.

See the fan under the KD Canopy? Guess where I spent most of the the day ;D ;D ;D 8) 8)   We did have to unplug the air conditioner for a few moments, but I made it through that and was able to continue my day ;D
