Well, it's official!!! 
I've never been so excited and freaked out at the same time in my life!!!

Usually realty outfits hire somebody to keep up the lawns at their listings... no such luck here! This was actually taken about a month ago...house wasn't ours yet, but I didn't want it to get worse. There's almost an acre of grass in front... not quite enough for hay so I broke out the Stihl weedeater

Some hot girl volunteered to help mow it.

Looking out the front... very "Northwest"
The previous owners had the house and shop built 4 years ago, then proceeded to just make a mess of it. So we bought a lot of garbage! :grumpy: Fortunately I have a swift clean-up crew.
Since there was about 20 full sized garbage bags of paper, boxes, OSB and pallets that were left out in the rain, and some crappy sawdust/glue furniture left inside, we decided to have a bonfire.
Here's the new home of Wheeler Custom Knives
It definitely needs some color change and probably some more windows (there is a roll up door on the other end and another man door with two matching windows on the other side)... but it's 36'X48' of fully insulated and finished shop!!! 3.6 times the square footage I've been working in.
There's a lot of work to do here, the house, shop, and property need a lot of things changed to make it all our own... but it's a great start.
