The guy who is doing my gutters called to say he was coming tomorrow because of Friday's forcast. So it looks like the storm will help me get it done sooner. Sweet.
Thanks Jay. As far as storage I'm thinking of putting storage like Scott did in his garage but only down the right side and along the back wall. I'll put my work bench along the back wall so I might be able to drop the bottom of the shelf a little lower and then mount my light on the bottom of the storage.I'm going to keep the left wall clear at the top incase I can afford a lift so I can have the head room I need.
The panel in the garage is a 200 amp panel with a 100 amp going to the house. The garage panel has 40 spaces for full size breakers. So I'm pretty well set for what ever I need. I'm going to run the recepticals for my bench along the front that way the cords won't be in the way. I'm not sure on how many or which kind of lights yet.

So,....there may be a good reason for snow after all!
Good luck Wayne. Very nice.
The guy came and did the gutters today. It took one guy about 4 hours to finnish the job. He did some nice work. Here are some pictures of the work.
This corner was tricky, the porch roof is a couple of inches higher than the house roof. He did a nice job matching it.
Then I got a call around 11 am from the garage door guy he wanted to install the track and opener today because he had a cancelation. He came down and started installing it. They got the track in and were adjusting the springs . The door was light when it was down and heavy when it was half way up. He said they sent the wrong springs so it won't be done until next week.
This has been a pretty good week for progress. The door guy called , the springs came in . He came down Monday and installed them and the LiftMaster 3800. The door is finnaly finnished and usable. The cable was attached to the temporary power pole and had to be run through the garage to the house. That got done too. I have some pictures that were taken with a only the 300 watt compact fuoresent that screws in a regular socket. Its pretty good it only uses 68 watts and is pretty bright.
Wow, Wayne, things are really coming together. With the crappy forecast, I bet you can't wait for insulation, drywall, lights and heat, but having the car in the garage will be big by itself. The rest can happen anytime, because it's yours and it's not going anywhere. Good luck.
