Andy,

I'd like to come by for a look and maybe get more suggestions.

One Way,

Chairs and 200 hour weeks are why Andy's project is getting so far ahead of mine. I stuck a couple chairs in the garage for lunch break, and I have a radio there as well.

I'm thinking ahead to how I want to switch the lights. The workbench lights will be on a separate switch. If I put two 48" florescent fixtures in each of the three bays, it seems silly to put them all on one switch, since I would end up lighting up the boat bay just to back my car out of the garage. Actually not. Most garage door openers have a 5-minute light with them, and that would serve the everyday purpose of putting vehicles in or out. The overhead lights would mainly be used when vehicles are put in the driveway, and the garage has a workshop project going on. I don't know. Maybe the electrician will have a better idea.

I am good to stand for a good 15 hour day, but there are chairs there for the weak. My 74 year old dad heads out there every once in a while to help, so I gotta keep him healthy. I'm to the point now that few can keep up with me. I've got a pretty good level of endurance if I have Ibuprofen in the evening and morning, and as long as my testicles are smaller than a baseball.

I've lost 30 pounds in the past 8 months as of this morning, and other than a bout of tendonitis in both forearms after finishing the siding on the shop, I'm good. Strength is way up, and I could snap most grown men like a twig. Ladies at work have even noticed. 10 pounds to go and I'll have reached my goal weight!

As far as the grow operation goes Romulus, we do that across the ditch on the neighbors property, and only in the summer. Natural and all. I'd love to have you and Jonas over, but we have to keep the pinners on the downlow, 'cause the old lady is a probation officer. Make sure you don't have any warrants, 'cause she runs everybody who steps onto the property.

I do have Sirius Radio in the shop, but listening to Howard Stern and Bubba (for those in the know) keeps me thinking and moving, and provides some adult entertaiment on many a late night, like tonight.

SG, I'll send you a pm with my location and cell, if you haven't figured it out already. Visitors are welcome, especially if you have an idea or two. Beer is always cold.

Yes, I will add a few more lights, just trying to figure out where.

I have enough wood to build a metric ass ton of work benches, about 72 feet or so, possibly more. I might run out of wall space before I run out of wood.
