Well, since the 8N has only had one short snow moving opportunity so far this winter, I've been working on finishing out my heated workshop (so I can get some woodworking projects underway, including a work island for the kitchen and built-in cabinets for the dining room).
I started this a couple years ago, and once I got heat in it, it got used a good bit, to the point where it was getting too cluttered to work in. So over the holiday break from work, I cleaned it all out, and spent most of today degreasing and etching the floor in preparation for painting. Then I'll do a second coat on the trim and clean up around the edges, and it will be time to hang wall cabinets and finally get all the piles out in the machine shed sorted and filed away.
Of course, as I write this, we're getting snow and sleet, so who knows what tomorrow brings?!

If that is your operation, it might seem like you're running in twenty directions at once... on the OTHER hand, it looks like you're a fair distance from COLD weather....  That's not all bad!!

It isn't mine. I just saw it once and thought it sort of mimicked mine before my last move: (Yeah, I know, we sure wish we had kept the Camaro too!!!!!!

Yeah, mine wasn't quite *that* cluttered, but was getting close. I figured when I got to the point where it was taking longer to find tools and materials than it did to actually do a job, it was time to clean house!

Ok JMOR, When did you sneak over to my place and take that picture? Seems like the Camero was swapped for some outboards but otherwise the same place. LOL. Mike

It is related to SHMBO.........the little path down the right side of Camaro leads to washer & dryer & kitchen door & access to those seemed important to her? What can I say?

I did notice the washer/dryer and refrigerator door in the picture and was surprised you were getting that much lattitude

It is kind of surprising, for sure, as she had to park the newest vehicle the family owned outside (her MB had a hood). Couldn't let the front end of the Camarro get rained on! The only non-negotiable rule, as I recall was DON"T PILE ANY CRAP ON TOP OF THE WASHING MACHINE!

Noticed the broom leaning up against the Camero. I guess my ex must have stopped by.
