Swept the floor for the first time. That's a lot of sweeping! The first car part was moved in. It's the frame for dad's '55 Chevy. My son got me this sign. It's the first thing hung on the wall.

Doors and gutters are done. I bought the meter base, two 200 amp breaker boxes and some other stuff to get some electricity out there, but haven't started installing it yet. It's very hot inside.

I'm putting a living area in one end. This is mostly for my new wife to have a place to hang out while I'm working on stuff. We might sell the house someday and move in here.
