Cody's Place in the Pines

[Cody449]

This thread will be the documentation of my "project". I am northern Minnesota boy that purchased my first home in June 2014. To give you the quick version of my life:
Jack of all Trades that went college, graduated, got a job in that city for a couple years, and now moved back to my home town for a new job. Love the outdoors and motorcycles, raced dirt bikes for 15 years of my life.

The search lasted nearly a year and found this house that needs some rehab...with no garage.

So here are some as bought pics to start off this adventure on garage journal, I will update as I find time to slowly catch you up to speed on where the project is at.

Where's the garage?

To ease the mind of those wanting to know the garage status, attached are pictures of the second and third modification to the garage size. I was set on 26x30, then realized it would be to tight width wise for what I wanted. Which leads to the 28x32 in the picture that was staked out. Then my dad and I parked our 2 full size trucks and a Polaris Ranger in there. It was to small again. Next I just took some marking paint and went another 8 feet longer to make it 28x40. This size felt right, so more fill got hauled in. With all these changes I have decided to ride out winter without a garage to make sure I have the size I want for my needs and the property size. Have a good one!
