Ginger's new room part drei

Here's part three of Ginger's new room. Below are parts 1 and 2.

Part one

Part two

The good news - she's sleeping warm and safe for the first time since she came to live with me. The space isn't completed yet - still have to do the paint, electrical trim, trim carpentry. work benches, VCT and other misc. Tonight is a real milestone though. I was so happy that I washed her this aft even though it was damn cold.

Great looking garage, it blends in well with the house.

Nice - Maybe Ginger will be more receptive to your advances now that she's toasty warm...

Nice digs for the P-car. The garage doors are very cool. Really like how the architect copied the style of the front of the house to the garage to tie the two together. One thing I can't get past is why the garage door/s aren't centered under the gable. There has to be a reason, other than to distress us slaves to symetry. Not that Ginger will care...

Slider - no oil leaks, that's water - she just got a bath.

Rick - thanks! Good eye on the gable. Its placement was a real compromise - whether to center on the roof or over the garage door. I think that ultimately I made the right decision to follow the rhythm from the front of the house.

FANTASTIC Mark!! That looks great and I can just see you hanging out in there. Are plans for A/C in place now or is that a later project? It gets plenty hot in DFW!!
