Unfortunately I work under a carport. That is until I finish putting up shelves and clearing the Weider Gym out of my garage. Anybody want a Weider Gym (over $500 new) for $150 bucks?? It will make a great boat anchor!! :2thumbs:

Cars or Work?

Occasionally I work outside at work, this time of year gets tough when trying to finish something up.

In the summer I will have the door open but not now it's too cold. :eek4:

 Time to change the ol' internal time clock again. I am ready though, lately seeing 7:00 am and it is still dark really messed the day up. Now 6:00 lets me sleep in a bit more.  :icon16:

I guess it depends on what.  I don't work on the car at night as the garage light may disturb the neighbors so I limit myself to stuff that is sorta quiet and I can do in the dark...

I had a neighbor across the street from me who used to do that. Turned out he had Alzheimers! :scared:

I hate it, it sucks.  If I want to work on my truck, its usually after chores ~ 7:30 or so.  Dark waaaay before then now.   :walkaway:

My son lives up in Juneau Alaska and I give him a hard time about it being dark all the time in the winter, then he sends me pics of his team playing softball in the summer at 2:00 AM! That's alright, I still wouldn't live in Alaska. :grinno:

I am so far north that by the shortest ady the sun will rise after 8 am & set by 4:30 of course we get the benefit in the summer where the sun rises around 4 am & sets at 10:30 , I hate the short dark days  :swear:

 Last week before the change I was walking to work in the dark but watching the sun set on the way home. This week the sun is comming up on my way to work but is dark before I go home. After a couple of weeks (or less) I will have to wear my little headlite cause its back to going to work before sunrise and going home before sunset :-\
