Great Shots. I like the Toy Garage. I have been trying to figure out what kind of Shelter I could design / build and keep my neighbors from torching it.

Close to Peoria, possibly down by the river?

Pretty yard, nice to know you. If you ever need help with anything let me know, we are close.

Thank You.
We are 40 miles North of Peoria at Lake Thunderbird in Putnam, ILLINOIS.
Great fishing, nice clean lake.

Welcome Alek&Lucia. Good looking bus and interesting garage port. What's the deal with the door? Does zoning prevent seeing the bus from the road? Looking forward to meeting you. :)

No zoning problems, for the tax reasons: it's a car port. For neighbor reason: it has a door so nobody knows if we are home or on the road. For winter our GADGET goes to a full heated garage, and we keep our boat under the carport :p

Am I missing something. Walking 10 feet to the side shows a wide open view of the inside of the carport. It would seem that it's fairly obvious if theres a bus in there or not?

Do you have side walls which come down?

Perhaps I should rephrase this: not neighbors, but passersby.
Our house and garages are about 350' from the road, and the property is wooded. No side walls are needed. We have about 3 acres. Woods on one side and lake on other. Besides there is nothing better, than walking out from your house and the next thing you see is your favorite toy.

To answer the question, our garage door is 14' x 14'. H345 will fit
I'm getting a MPD attack again , and I'm deciding to keep my coach till spring or list somewhere now.

Am I missing something here? Didn't you just purchase your coach? You looking to get out of it already? :eek:

Ray,

No. This is our 4-th coach, and we have had it for 3 years already. We are already immune to current MPD medication, and the next dose has to be administered soon via 45' something with 8 wheels..... :eek: :rolleyes:

Alek,

I guess I mixed you up with one of the other new POG members who just got their bus! Watch out for that special form of MPD that's out there now. It's a variant that specifically wants stainless, without rivets!! :eek:

I understand there is no cure, but symptoms can be alleviated for a couple of years!

Ray, thats easy to do....there are bus's being bought and sold on this site almost weekly and with the new members. I would like everyone to list more info on the bottom of the map so we could kind of keep up with everyone.
