As evidenced by the mismatched primer and the tons of holes half assed filled in the drywall, moving stuff around in the garage is nothing new for me. Strangely enough, we never shoehorned three vehicles in the garage when I had the Cougar. My wife was hopeful that we could get all three parked safely tucked away inside at night, and sure enough, it worked!

That let to the unfortunate problem of the garage fridge being blocked when the 4Runner was backed in. Problem solved! I moved the fridge to the sidewall, moved my box and table to the back wall, and all is good. It actually makes for a better workspace, as the overhead lighting is now right over the folding bench.

I’m “almost” where I want to be in the garage. Get some fresh paint on the walls, add a bit of lighting, and I might (MIGHT) and a floor shelf to the wall with the fridge on it. That goes against my “nothing that is not on wheels” on the garage floor, as I like being able to empty it out easily and pressure wash the floor. My son needs to go through his toys to see what he still plays with. The other concern with a shelf, is then stuff from inside the house tends to migrate out into the garage where it doesn’t belong. That’s why I don’t have a permanent 4 leg workbench, it became a crap collector instead of a workbench. Of course, I’ll remember that statement as the parts stash for the Mustang starts to build up on my folding table.
