The Extra Costs. New boat home.

Haha, mine too!

That is just fantastic. Gonna make everything involving the boat just that much more enjoyable!

Dang Tusc! When are they striping the drive and adding the sidewalks and Street lamps?

Haha,
Geez, I know. That bill's gonna make me puke, but it has to get done.
A lot of this is maintenance. Our house is going on 18 years old, and some stuff has to get done. My driveway has been totally falling apart, and I've been patching holes for about 10 years waiting to build this garage before paving. The boat just kicked it into gear this year.

Our original attached garage is fine for our two trucks, but not enough left to work on anything and my son's Jeep sits outside. The kid opens the deli at 6am, and I hate it for him when it's -10. Not enough to give him my spot though.
It must seem like we're going freaking crazy here, and I feel a little funny sharing it, but we're not wild spenders, although it doesn't look that way.
I guess you guys caught us at a time when we are doing some of this fun stuff we've been planning and saving for.

I like the way it sets away from the main house. When Aslan fires up the huge boom box he has and we really get the place rock'n then we won't disturb Mrs. T. I know she will appreciate that!!

Great job on everything. It cost money to do things right. I always tell my wife that it is an investment (not the boat of course). I try and build things right also and hopefully it will last a while.

Right.
Cutting corners eventually costs more money, and a LOT of headaches.

Very nice. You have to do what you have to do. It's really the little touches that just sets it off. Nice job Mrs. T

Wow, this site is dead tonight.. so...

Finished up the driveway yesterday. Today addition was landscape lighting my old high school friend/electrician wanted to do. Good time to trench.
We live about 500 feet off the end of a dead end street, so it's really dark back here. We pulled out out street light mounted on a telephone pole at the start of the site work, so we needed to add security lighting.
Almost done, except for topsoil and seed.

[Tuscany]

A few more.

Black top yesterday.

[Big Block Power]

Very nice. Oh GB Packer game.

How funny. Turned on my new outdoor lighting last night for the first time.

[Tuscany]

Haha, funny.
Toss in some pictures!

With LED lights, power usage makes it so easily affordable now, like under 80 watts total.

Yeah me too..
