Now that snow is flying,
Gary can realize a major benefit of the Main House:
a heated garage with a 10' wide door and deep enough for the
truck to park inside with the plow.
This means he does not have to spend 20 minutes out in the
cold cleaning snow off the truck and dealing with doors that
have frozen shut,
followed by working with hands on cold controls until the
truck warms up.
Getting the truck into the garage takes careful navigation;
with the rear bumper firmly against the back wall,
there is less than 2" clearance for the door to close.
