Van Finally Has a Home Again

Our poor van, who growls at us every time we turn it on in the winter months, finally has a roof over it's head again.
Back in November our garage was transformed into an extra storage room out of necessity when we started the basement project. I'm afraid that the van got the boot, but I'm proud to report that as of today our van is no longer homeless. My hard work has paid off just in time for hopefully one of the last big snow storms of the season!
Oddly enough when I took Dennis to work this morning it made me laugh as I drove by all the other "homeless" cars out there who where left out in the snow as well. The term two car garage is very misleading. In reality what it should be called is an attached shed with room for a small car to squeeze into. And more often than not the typical two car garage is simply an extra storage room for most people. It's true because I saw if for myself! Car after car with a 1/2 inch of snow frosted on the tops of them.
The next item on our wish list is a shed. A real detached building in the back yard with a concrete pad and all to store the lawn mower, rakes, shovels, wheelbarrow and all sorts of lawn and garden care products that currently reside in our "garage". Never again will our van be homeless!
