Tonight my Burb will stay in her own room for the first time!! I just got the garage "done enough" to secure her while I finish it up. I am so excited, I have been waiting for years for this. Yay!!!

Me so happy!

GMCjunkie · 08-08-2013, 08:15 PM

Snuggled in...

**slomotion** · 08-08-2013, 08:20 PM

Wait! There's something missing! Where's the boxes, lawn mower, laundry basket full of yard toys, table for lawn sale, and misc. junk?

JK!! Congrats! I know the feeling!

**FL71C10** · 08-08-2013, 08:33 PM

Looks good! And I didn't see a bunch of stuff inside it.

I was talking about stuff inside the burb!

**special-K** · 08-08-2013, 10:12 PM

How did it feel to pull the door down the first time?

463 · 08-08-2013, 10:13 PM

So Happy for you Junkie, looks good tucked in there.

vectorit · 08-08-2013, 10:47 PM

Very nice!
I bet you will rest better at night, knowing your burb is safe and sheltered.

**67carry-all** · 08-08-2013, 11:40 PM

That is not enough room you know....

alsriv2 · 08-09-2013, 01:25 PM

I'm just a weee bit jealous...

I wish I had room to build a garage for my C10. Had to go with a shed instead

Looks good in there!

GMCjunkie · 08-09-2013, 08:32 PM

Ok, all that OTHER junk yall are looking for is in the OTHER garage

This one will prolly be the cleanest kept garage ever!! Although the original part of my shop, the tool and work area is an absolute mess right now, as the shop is still under construction. Alsriv2, darling, I started out with a tent thingie, the real motivator was when the fabric of the tent rotted from the sun and the roof just "fell away",

And, Yes, IM already thinking that I should have went out about another 4 feet or so, but this is her home, or mansion rather.

K, I was so freaking excited, I worked and worked and worked to get the big garage door done so that it would close properly and even installed the locks. I ran in the house and my husband and kids all watched her be driven over the threshold for the first time. My papa will be home this weekend, so hoping he will help me pick the siding and get started on it before he leaves again. Cant wait to be done so that I can clean and organize the rest of my shop. Thanks for yalls comments!!

xoxo

Awesome!!! I'm just glad you're happy and that the burb has her own room, again awesome!!!

**special-K** · 08-09-2013, 10:07 PM

When does carpet go in? Have you hired an interior decorator yet? I hear all the males are g...uaranteed to be as good as the females (at interior decorating)
Anyway,could you pull the Suburban out so we can see better pictures of the garage?

GMCjunkie · 08-10-2013, 05:18 PM

LOL, K you are so funny. Think I will keep my concrete floors. Interior deco??? That's cute, even my house in not interiorily decorated.
