One More Step Started

The garage roof  has been started. To get the proper slope needed for the huge amount of rain water that will be coming off this roof  is impressive. Oklahoma rains are well know for being gully washers and we need to be ready for them. We will have a bit of an issue with the water running off the residence.The very front will come down on the shrub bed, so I will probably add quite a bit of flagstone to direct it where we want it to go. Meaning away from the building. All the space behind the existing bed to the garage will be converted from grass to bed so this will be easy to fix.

 The front of the roof will actually come out a bit farther to line up with the front wall of the garage. This wall will be completely rocked so it needs to be flush.

 From the back you can start to see the size of this roof. It goes against my nature that there won't be an attic above the garage. That's a lot of storage space not being utilized, but we don't need it so why build it.
