What I have been up to since Omaha

I spent the Summer building a new covered deck and workshop/home for the TR6. My wife can now park her car in the garage. It has only been 40 years since she has been able to do that. The workshop is 20x28, not large but good size for a one car project. I live in town so big pole barns are not a good option. I am installing heat now and hope to move in over the next couple of years.

Dale, that's a great project and may have side benefits :-) PS, the TR6 will like it also

Carl, I did not frame it or do much of the exterior but I did do a lot of the finishing of the interior.
