storage is a key element ..i knew going into this house that space would be limited but i couldnt walk away from an acre of land and 2 already standing garages

I noticed the storage lifts, so they can be used as service lifts as well?
If you mean oil changes, exhaust and shock work, etc. ,I'm sure they can.......here's what I plan on buying:

These 4 poster lifts are pretty cool. I've got one of those and one two post in my shop. The 4 poster has casters and I can roll it outside, load up a car, and pressure wash the bottom. (been there, done that) Then ya clean the lift off and roll it back in. They can even be moved with a car on them. My plans are to get at least one more of those.

Congrats on the new garage Tony. It looks like you're off to a great start.
Update.......my "Block" man will be here this p.m. to start laying block.
My buddy Tom suggested taking a picture of him actually working.
It may be my last chance. Not really, Tom and Harold will be pleanty busy
building the garage.
Now it's time for the "Block" man

Hey Wildcat
No flood damage for me thank goodness. It got within a
block and a half from my daughter's home as she lives
near the hospital. It is still closed!
I don't think the garage will be finished by August....maybe early fall.

that will be worth the wait, looks awesome!
The "block" man came out last p.m. and started setting up the
necessary steps to begin laying block.
Finally caught my truck doing some work. That doesn't happen
very often.

Update!
The "block" men are here
Mark has been laying block since 1983
Mark and his son Caden mixing up the first batch of mortar:
getting ready to lay the first block!
Thats the first one!
Took a pic of the sun while the guys were working:
Got rained out and had to quit today:
You can see the water at the base of the blocks.
Should be bringing in the fill stone next week.
I'm a happy camper now!

Hay Tony!! I did my best to get rid of the rain in your area.
Like I said before, It will be dun before you know it.

4 inches with wire will do it.:cheers:
Just make sure it cure's for at lest 10 day's befor you drive on it!.
Hey Mike
Don't forget that in one of my other posts I said if you lived
next to me, Miss Vicky could have a permanent space in my
new garage and I would give you your own key. :cheers:
By the way Mike the rain stopped after 20 minutes and the
sun came out! Thanks for the help!

The big Red Dump Truck came yesterday and dumped a couple of
loads of gravel.
Making a "bridge" to back the truck over:
Harold will spread it out with the Bobcat
Concrete floor will be poured a week from tomorrow (Sat.)
I'm starting to get excited.
