    Our shop has a bathroom, but it isn't kept up real well. We wash our hands in the sink with Go jo and it splatters all over the place, along with grease. Every once in a while a friend of Don's comes over and brings his wife, and of course, she has to use the bathroom. We warn her, but when you gotta go you gotta go. It was pretty embarassing to say the least.

    So last week while Dan was working on his car I made it my goal to scrub the whole place down, walls, floor, sink, etc. Even organized the magazine rack full of hot rod magazines. Now we are ready for company.

    I really wish I had a bathroom in my detached garage as well. It seems like everytime I finally break free from all of the other stuff I have going on and actually make it out there to do something.....just as I get started....I suddenly have to go to the bathroom... I'm not talking about taking a leak here... ....so, while I truly appreciate the ingenuity of the idea and agree with it in concept, unfortunately, a Folgers can just really doesn't seem like an option....

    Yeah but then you gotta empty it.... or you'll quickly have a new found appreciation of the phrase....."trying to squeeze a 100 lbs. of $#!+ into a 10 lb. bucket"....

    5 gallon bucket does the number one job! Need to get a citrus tree to dump it on. They really do like to be peed on according to my New Zealand Kiwi friends. Watch "Worlds Fastest Indian"! He does it as well. I know, TMI, its time for an Uncle Bob old woman photo! Just kidding Bob!

    Every garage should have a bathroom

     



    every garage should have a bathroom....and every bathroom should have a computer! the bathroom seems to be the only place I get any peace any more, so I sometimes finish up and stay in there, magazines and books litter the floor in both bathrooms (I do sometimes stack them and switch which one is on top, make it look good). My wife tolerates it, but when I suggested installing a tv in the master bathroom toilet closet thingy she said NO.

    when I am in the garage and have to go badly I just step into the side yard and aim for the gutter between sidewalk and fence. more than the cleanup involved in going inside it saves me getting my little girl all excited at seeing me and then trying to duck back outside without her getting upset she isn't coming.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
