Hello from Vancouver Island

[rj440]

I guess I should have started here. I'm on an island on the west coast of Canada. I'm getting closer to retirement so we've started building the 1st garage up at the property we plan to retire to. After we retire and sell the current house freeing up some much needed cash, I'll be building another garage up island as a shop, that one will be fancier I restore cars as a hobby so I need all the room I can get.

Cheers

Rob

Live in Victoria but have a place near Parksville that we're planning to retire to. Where are you?

Welcome from Kelowna...

Thanks, I haven't been there in a while, I lived in Vernon for a bit way back. I always thought Kelowna was a beautiful place.

Are you on the mainland here or just south of the border?

Well Rob, you're going to be pretty close, I'm from Port Alberni. Just half an hour from Parksville. Good luck with your construction. Let me know if I can help with anything. Derrin.

Not too far at all. I've been reading your garage/house build, beyond amazing, I'm speechless.

Thanks, we usually go to Port a couple times a year, we always go to the little car show on Canada Day. We'll have to meet some time. Nice little flatfender by the way, I restored a CJ years ago, always wanted one of the older ones like yours.

Welcome from Whidbey Island.

Thanks, I've never been to Whidbey Island, looks similar in size to our gulf islands which are beautiful and have a very laid back lifestyle.
