Ours is still a wreck, but it houses all the bikes and other misc crap.

OK...today I'm going to "TRY" and do some shop cleaning. The walls are closing in too much and while Carlo's pic showed several bikes parked in our garage...it's not quite as roomy as I'd like it to be. I may have to build another storage shed!

I thought you just enclosed the new carport, maybe some storage at one end of it?

Have you ever seen Cary after having a bowl of Wheaties and two shots of SeaFoam?

Eventually Ken. We have to wait awhile before we give it that "lived in" look so as not to arouse the city dogs. That was a concern of theirs that we would turn it into another garage. We had to get a variance to have it installed right on the property line and as long as it's considered a temporary fixture it's fine with them. If we close it up then they said it would not be acceptable as it would not be considered a temporary fixture. Hmmmmm...I wonder how long we should wait?

Here they stack bales of hay along the open portions to close them off

I thought it was a great picture showing a man with a big heart and great sense of humor!

That would probably work here also but I'd worry about the lil green VW when Shirley hauls out of the carport in a streak of light going to a fire call. She might start the bales on fire!
