While I haven’t moved any furniture, I have moved most of our personal items that could be boxed up along with over half of the “stuff” in my old garage. I have a pull down stairway in the garage upstairs and figured I would just use it for long term storage. After sorting a few boxes, I decided I had accumulated enough treasures that I could move them to the attic so there would be fewer things to stumble over in the basement.
During this minor task I discover something else about the house that I didn’t know. The ceiling joists in the garage are 2 x 10’s running full length front to back and the entire space over the garage is floored with 1/2” OSB. It won’t happen right away but I’m going to add an lvl beam under the center of the ceiling and then I’ll be able to finish out that space and have a special place for the grandkids to play. With the high roof line there is still plenty of long term storage up there.

Sadly any exercising for the Chevelle would have to be done with a tow rope attached. I’m hoping to get the Chevelle moved to the basement after all my construction chores are done. Until then, I may have to move it to my mothers house and store it in my Dad’s old shop. It will be a body off restoration this time, if I live long enough! I will call you when it is able to move under it’s own power again.
