Anxiously awaiting part 2!

This is what happens:

I get home from work.
I start a fire to warm up the garage.
3-4 hours later its only slightly warmer than freezing.
get ready to start "tinkering" (thats what my wife calls it)
I look at the clock and realize its 9-10 PM
Shut it all down and go in the house.

I think they call it insanity...?

Yeah, I cant wait! I've been planning for early retirement since I was 22. 11 years later - just recently paid off everything I own, Last thing on the list is build a bigger shop next to my tiny garage. 40x60 big enough?

Very smart planning. I worry about the youth of today never being able to retire. Haven't seen much motivation, at least from my own kids.

Build as big as you can afford while you are working. It never seems to be big enough. I have a 24x30 barn and a 24x32 garage and a 12x24 shed and yet, I still need more room for the tractor. To much Crapola maybe?
