Gary should really write this entry in our blog as he was home today the whole time that the guys from Ideal Building were here. But alas, his excuse is that he wrote most of the travel blogs and he wants a break. And yeah, this is the look he usually gives me.

Robert was here with the painters for about 30 minutes this morning so they could see the space and provide us with a bid on how much it would cost to repaint our kitchen and tv room with Ralph Lauren Suede paint. We should hear back either tomorrow or early next week with a price quote.

On our first posting, you could see what our garage looked like before the dig, but I thought I would post this picture which is a closer view of what it looked like just before the remodel started.

Bill and Travis were here all day as they worked on the garage and finished up the new drainage system. In order to fill the base of the drainage system to the north of the new garage with rocks, Bill rented a trailer for his truck and backed into the new garage space and then dumped it into the space from there.

Although Bill's 'big ass' truck fits into the new garage - Gary realized that the hummer barely fits between the space where the single garage door will go. The hummer is so wide that Gary would have to fold in the mirrors and even then there would only be a few inches on either side. So it looks like the new garage will be for me and my equinox. YES!!

Gary is a little disappointed since the big workshop will be in the new garage space, he wanted his hummer there too. It would be kinda like his own little garage.

Tomorrow, the electrician will be here...
