Spent the weekend laying the tubing for in-floor heating while the bricklayers bricked the front of the garage.

Inspector was in this morning, in-floor passed the pressure test and all look good so he gave the nod to pour the floor.

Murray should be in his home by the end of the month.

Hi, Bruce.

Is there some way in which you can direct us to the pictures of the project instead of the website housing ALL of your pictures?

Bruce,
A beautiful building, matches the house perfectly. You will have a great facility for your coach. I do have one concern and it is not with you're building, but with the area in front of the building. You appear to have limited space in front of the building. I have a 40’ deep by 46’ wide pad in front on mine and it took all of the 40 foot depth to get the 26’ coach into the door opening without some jockeying. You have to back in from the side left to right looking at the door opening and do not have a straight shot at the door opening. With my 29 1/2’ stretch it takes several moves to get it straight enough. Just my concerns from my experiences with a similar layout in front of the building. Again great job on the building

JR,
Thanks for the complements.

You are correct, currently there is only 30ft in front of the large bay. Its being extended by another 20ft once the floor is poured (the last of the heavy construction trucks).

I've backed the GMC onto that lot, but it was not lined up to back into the garage. I don't want to cut down any more trees if I can help it.

Bruce,
I am with you on the removal of trees if not necessary. The 50’ open area in front of the doors will make it much easier to get the coach into it's resting place. You will have to evaluate it when you get everything together.
