Default Semi OT: I can finally sleep peacefully..



The R finally has a home in a garage. It survived outside for a year, and now I can sleep peacefully at night. Even if they went for the garage door, my room is directly above it and I would definitely wake up.

Huge! Hey, you get what you get. I know a few people that would kill for a garage like that.

Yeah, it's kinda small.. but there's tons of room in the front, so I can work on it in there.. my biggest worry was getting it inside, which it is..

you should still be careful since it's been sitting out for a year and people definitely know that you own it. good luck tho!

also, get a new camera!

My car also spent a year outside. I was also very relieved when I got my car off the street.

So very true. I need to build more shelving and rearrange my two-car garage to maintain my goal of keeping two vehicles sheltered. The Pig has been kicked outside temporarily.

And I still have a garage rented at the old apartment that's full of stuff

moved into a new place.. it sat outside for a day or two until the garage was emptied..

and yeah, my camera sucks..

george is right though. even if I had a two car garage it'd probably still look like that. although most of that isn't my stuff and will be gone within a week or two, giving more room..

Congrats on the garage for your car. Big or small, if you can keep your car away from the POS thieves and the harsh elements it's a huge bonus and makes for a good nights sleep. My parents 3 car garage is fully occupied..
