The Neighbor's Space

     Today we went next-door to look at the neighbor's place to look for the best space to keep the car while we work on it. They have a couple options, the shed and the car port. We spent a good hour evaluating our options, looking at how structurally sound the shed was and how easily visible the car would be. We found quickly that the shed was the best option because the car port was helping to block any visibility of the car while in the shed. When looking at the structural stability of the shed, I got a little bit conceded about the roof because it started slanting down on the side towards the school. When I voiced this concern, Mr. Moudry answered very confidently that this shed will not collapse even after our children die. I thought this was a very bold statement, but I accepted it because Mr. Moudry has proven himself to be a wise man.
     We decided that the shed still needed a lot of work, but it was our best option. We were going to need to put some flooring in the shed because the ground would not be a sufficient surface for us. We also realized that the shed would need some more electrical outlets, in fact, there only seemed to be one available. This would surely be not enough for what we needed, and there wasn't a 240 volt socket for the car either. As a whole we decided that this was the best option as it was right next to the school, but it would still need some work.
