My water front property garage during the 2010 Flood in Nashville!

The first 2 pics are of my shop behind the house.

The last picture is of my Datsun 510 race car getting a bath in one of the upper garages in the house. This car was in one of lower garages in the house and I moved the car to an upper garage so I would not have to leave the car outside and get wet. The car would have been totally submerged if I did not move it to the upper garages!

OOOPS!

Forgot about it and it got wet anyway!!!

All I had was 3 1/2 feet of water in the shop, 8 feet of water in the basement garages and 18 inches of water in the upper garage. No water or damage IN the house.

Just an inconvenience when compared to other folks with 8 feet of water in their house!

All cleaned up and ready to go 2 days later.

I have another tractor outside and the Fairlane under the overhang covered by a tarp. The wall by the Fairlane divides off the calves.

Looking in from 9X8 door



If you look close you can see a 1948 9N Ford





The left side is my shop, right used to be for two horses. It has two 10x12 stalls and hay storage. There are a couple of steers in there now.

I have been using google sketch-up over the last few days to remodel my shop. I am going to take away the hay storage and add a 8X20 space for a work area.

Gotta love Google Sketch-up. Great way to work it all out. Looks good!
