Last weekend I finally got enough boxes cleared out of the garage.

View attachment 935953

If it fits, it sits!

It was 38 degrees outside when I left for work this morning. But not in my car! :D

I love having a garage!!!!
I’m jealous!

I have had one car garages at a couple places I’ve lived, but part of the deal being of the male species is that my car was rarely the one tucked in at night.

No garage in our new house, but a garage at both rental properties we have. My old Chevelle will split time between the two garages.

We will see how it goes, but I can see us getting a very large car port in the near future. Something nice that we can close in slowly as the years pass

I miscalculated how cold 30 degrees feels here. Brrrr. Remote start on the car is great but walking to and from the car, no matter how short, was less than pleasant with a hoodie and puffy vest.

The positive is that I have substantial allergy relief and can stop using my eye drops every day.

When I was home shopping (many years ago) a garage wasn't a top priority ...My condex has one and I am so thankful!

I've seen some people here build a car port like a pergola so it looks nice but protects their cars.

My parents had a garage, and we always had the cars in there growing up. But the whole time I've lived on my own, I've never had a garage until now. While part of me would like to use it as extra storage, the reality is I need to just get rid of a bunch of stuff anyway, and I'd much rather have my car out of the elements.

One of our neighbors has a nicer looking car port with decorative posts, some woodwork that matches the house, and matching shingles over it. It looks fantastic.

Even if we never got snow, it’s worth it to avoid an icy windshield every day.
