Note, the empty space in the garage is not filled by a Land Rover, and none of the 20 tires (summer and winter tires for both cars, plus 2 motorcycle tires, plus 2 mountain bike tires) that spend time in my garage are Hankooks. I also took my shop vac and sucked up about 50 miles worth of spider webs from this half of the garage and used a push broom to clean up all of the leaves and other debris that somehow snuck onto my floors.
This garage will be seeing a transformation sometime. Eventually I will be cleaning up (read: using as kindling material) all of the cardboard underneath the Land Rover sign, and replacing the hanging wood structure with hanging tire storage. The space where the tires sit will eventually be filled by my workbench, and the hanging structure will go on the left side of my garage. All of the other crap will go upstairs as the previous owners were kind enough to put in a folding staircase to the attic (you can see the cord hanging down). Once everything is off of the floors, then I'll put down some epoxy, but that may be at least next summer

Where did you get the sign? That would down right purdy in my dad's garage (his birthday is coming up).

Someday. This was the only caveat that I really cared about when we bought our house. I told my wife I wanted a 2 car garage. I lucked out with a super deep 2.5 car. When my wife pulls her Forester in, the front bumper barely passes the red box by the wall.

I got it last year at Pike's Peak. It started downpouring so we left and took a few signs with us on the way out

My Leatherman basically paid for itself right then and there. A few other people decided it was a good time to head out, so while I was rolling up the signs I just snagged, I let somebody else cut the zip-ties for a few signs of their own. Road America was usually pretty nice about letting people take signs after their ALMS races, so I have a friend whose garage is littered with "Welcome race fans!" signs of varying sponsors

Just a duo of Subarus :) Someday I'll get a proper LR, but the purchase of the house has depleted my funds (just bought it about 2 months ago)

I'm super jealous of this fact.

I'm going to put a dangling tennis ball hanging from the ceiling so that once my workbench is in the back, I never have to worry about one of the cars being too close

I have a car. I have a basement apartment, and no garage. I still love reading the garage journal forums. So many ideas for when I have a garage.
