What views do you have from your garage?

[5lima30]

Here is a view of some deer from behind my garage. I could actually see them from out my window but I went outsde to try for a better pic.

I get this out the small door....great view of nothing out the big doors!

 

[bullfrog123]

Sorry guys, whatever you or I have may be nice, but bullfrog wins.

So far, I agree.....but I'm sure someone will post a pic of an almost naked girl and....well....you know how guys are....

Anyway...this is the view from the second story window of my garage....the mountains north of Los Angeles....it's usually clearer than this...

 

[eldirector]

Overhead door closed? Nothing (no windows).

Overhead door up? The neighbors.

The door stays down most of the time! I'm envious of the awesome views some of you have....

Are you saying that you can see more from that second story window than just the mountains?

 

[ptschram]

Corn fields in almost every direction.

Pics of the yard are on my website.

Yesterday, there was a herd of deer across the street in the barren field.

This morning, two geese in the pond, this afternoon, a Heron in the pond eating my goldfish-LOL.

The Border Collie drives the birds nuts, trying to herd them, the Lab wants them to lay down so he can bring them to me.

A view toward the shop looking East.

Morning:

Night, in the same day last week.

Despite the snow, it's my little slice of heaven.

 

[DirtyWhiteBoy]

Mostly trees

 

[5lima30]

Bullfrog those are awesome views!

 

[toolman1967]

I have a view of acres of woods across from the overhead doors. UNFORTUNATELY I can HEAR the interstate.

 

[drewski]

If my garage doors are open in the summer and I'm paying attention, I've seen a dozen or so deer right out in front of my garage. And every now and then I catch them in action. Not great pictures but I had to take the shots or miss it.

And since I live off the end of the runway of a small airport, I hear sounds that tell me something special is coming.

A view back toward my shop.

Man, you guys kill me! What fabulous views!

Living off a runway? Awesome. And just when in God's green earth do you get a B17 fly-by, 66 years later?!!!! Flippin' amazing!!!

I wanted privacy when I bought my little 2.2 acres. I thought I had it made. Still close to the city we work in, close enough to the kids' schools to drive them without going crazy, much cheaper property taxes......until the neighbor built her house about 50 ft from ours!! I've had to plant a bunch of spruce trees to try and block her out.

Open garage doors usually just let in mosquitoes in the summer and snow in the winter, so they stay shut most of the time. One door shows a nice tree line on the other side of our property which is great. Another door shows another neighbors house about 400 ft away so not so bad. I still want to block that out though. Bullfrog123 wins though. I always wanted to have no visible neighbors and be able to shoot off my back porch. Oh well, maybe I'll win the lotto.......

Keep the pics coming guys. Awesome!

 

[haugy]

There are some good ones in here. Damn.

 

[NUTTSGT]

Hundreds of Bob White quail and an occasional pheasant.

 

[smooth72]

We custom built the house to have as many views to the back as possible and that was before we built the pond and of coarse could not build the pool before the house. We put allot of our own blood sweet and tears in it. The house is hers, the garage (1300 sq ft) is mine.

 

[santagary]

Pagosa peak and the continental divide!

Drew,

You live off the end of Tullahoma?


You guys have wonderful views, mine is my neighbors garage!

So that's what's deer do when they think no-one's watching?

I live off the end of runway 32 at what was the old Sewart AFB in Smyrna TN.

The B17 was here for display and people could get a 30 minute flight for a nominal fee. I'm sure it would have been fun to climb around inside of that thing as it flew around the area. There was a guy from Nashville that would bring his P51 Mustang out to play in my area several times a month. Haven't seen it in a long time though. Always have C130's and military helicopters around. For a lot of people the planes would be a nuisance, but I was in Army aviation during my tour of duty at Ft. Rucker and I kinda enjoy seeing them. I do get tired of the Lears hot dogging the area though.

We also have an airshow from time to time and seeing the static planes arrive is a lot of fun. Most people never see them fly since they're only on display at the show. And watching the Blue Angels or the Thunderbirds practice is really close up and personal.

Holy **** those are nice. I was going to post pics of my postage stamp but now I'm too embarrased. I'm definitely the mutt at the dog show.

I know what you mean. We live about 2-5 miles off of a small private airport (Briscoe Field, in Lawrencceville). Just close enough and just enough traffic that the odd plane is fun to look at, not a hassle.

I think we had that same B-17 here for the pay to ride deal, it was fun to watch it go over, but I didn't get any pics. The other cool one we had was an old Ford Tri-Motor that was doing pay-rides too. Man that thing was fun to watch!

 

[ptschram]

LOL-where we live, if a car drives down the road, we get up to look to see who it is.

The county tore the road up intending to resurface but ran out of money, now the road is at best, wash-board, it's no longer the local bypass. Yesterday evening, one of my clients said he liked as it made him feel like he was really driving his Land Rover.

In spite of being in an agricultural area, if I have too many client cars visible from the road, the neighbors whine to the county and I have to promise not to do it again. Curiously, were I working on tractors, there'd be nothing they could say about it as it would be ag-related. My wife says if she isn't complaining, they shouldn'tbe-she keeps me on a short leash but she's worth it.

Thought I would revive this thread now that its springtime. The treehouse thread got me to thinking of this one, and thought it was a better thread to post some pix looking out from my shop. Enjoy and please post up what you see now that its nice outside!

 

[Frank The Plumber]

I'm watching 2 rats having *** in the alley. Now there's just the male left cause I put a pellet into the female.........He's not stopping.
Just put a pellet into his head...a few more.....I think he's dead but he's still not stopping.

Any one jealous?

 

[Jack Olsen]

I'm a little jealous of the rat. I mean, if you've got to die, you might as well go out swinging.

 

[Frank The Plumber]

Now the can scrapper just came by with his shopping cart full of cans and his sleeping bag.
He's having some lunch from the neighbors.....can.

Ahhh....... pure Utopia.

I'd post some pictures but this guy looks a lot like our last Gov.

 

[hwinch5]

Wow, mostly woods here...deer, turkeys, birds of all sizes, fischer cats, foxes and beyond the woods a 30 acre Christmas tree farm!!

 

[TAftw]

Yeha I have a view of my neighbor's shed.

 

[regguy1]

I can see my beautiful home......

 

[Cuda]

Wow. My neighbor looks a lot like Sandra Bullock, and she isn't shy when working in her yard in the summer, from which I have a nice view from my shop. But Drew, that pic of the 17 flying over just might give me a bigger woodie than my neighbor. I think I need help.

My Brother in law caught a ride on a B24 that was here 7 or 8 years ago. For a few hundred bucks he got to fly from Ogden Utah to Reno Nevada at the last minute. Had the time of his life. From Reno, the 24 flew back to Texas (it's home base Confederate Air Force) and they couldn't gear the landing gear to drop. Ended up foaming the runway and doing a belly landing. He was pretty glad it waited one last flight to do that.

 

[GirlnAgarage]

Beautiful views guys. I live in the end of a culdesac. My view is as scenic as a surveillance camera.

Here is the view looking North and to the East out of my garage in Prescott Valley.

Purple mountains majesty as the sun was coming up and the moon about to go down.

The metal building is most of my garage (there is also a small two car detached garage).

The second picture shows deer that would be about 25 feet from the concrete on the right.
