Congratulations Brian, the house and the garage look great! I talked to you about it in the spring. My contractor had some jobs get bumped so I had my garage done in July. It is a great luxury to have all the toys inside. No electric yet, but the extension cord works well enough for waxing and tinkering. Monsoon will get more TLC than ever !

Thanks again G4B and everyone.
I worked outside in the toy box for a couple hours the other night getting ready to take the boat out on Saturday. I found myself polishing the wheels on the dually, and a bunch of other little things. It was truly awesome to have a place to do all that stuff.
I ordered the doors today, and they are coming for the site survey tomorrow. They should be here in a week or two. I will at a bare minimum get the electrical feed trenched out there before the ground freezes. I have been using the Honda EU2000I generator to power the contractor lights temporarily in the toy box.
We had the backyard shed finished and converted into a craft studio for Mary Sue this spring. (The second smaller one now has all the pool stuff in it.) I had the electrical feed run to the studio beefed up enough to feed the toy box as well. She has her 'space' and I have mine. Now we wonder when we'll see each other.

Quick update:
Garage doors have been installed for a while, and I just bought and trenched the electrical supply cable from the house to the toy box (800+ ft).
I've been debating Metal Halide Bay lights vs. HO/Low Ballast Fluorescent lights, and it looks like I am going with the Fluorescents as they provide better light.
