While I was gone...

Postby HomeRacingWorld » Mon Jan 27, 2014 8:10 pm

The General figured since I sneaked out on her, it was time to do some needed renovations at the Skunkworks.

Walls gone!

Looks like I have some work to do.

Guess I should have been down here like she thought :)

Goodnight nurse! Maybe you should come out here until the dust settles!

Tell you what Harry, I'll help on the remodel.....just send me that box on the top shelf: "RMS/MT Resin Bodies", with contents, of course. Look at all the space it will free up! :laughing-rolling:

Gosh. What happens when she's serious, or worse still, mad?

She has done this before. It is her gentle way of telling me things need improving.

So...it it's time.

Anyone want to come along?

It is a good thing I do not.

You will surprised how much will be recycled here.

But when the room is made, looks like extra space for more cars. :)

I'm still trying to figure out where that was. Goes to show you how much attention I pay to my surroundings, especially if I'm in the presence of slot cars. :lol:

Wow, way to go Cindy! That was a nice surprise for him coming home. He talked about the plans while he was here but I am sure he never expected it to be started when he got home. :dance:

Yes. But we are making him a new one :)

At least with the General supervising it might come out allright.

It's not finished yet Rusty. Maybe I just think I am getting a new shop? This could easily be her new Lady-Cave :)

We had discussed doing something like this so that he and visitors would have a better work area and more space.
I knew that he hated to tear out his work area and Toms area since I had built it for him, so when he was gone I tore it out to get him jump started on it.

He cleared out the rest of that area today and we went to Lowe's tonight and got a little bit done when we got home.

By the end of the weekend it should look wonderful down there. Then on to the next project. I will tell him what that is when this is finished. :shhh:

Jeremy and Rusty I new you guys would have my back. Even if I did a Lady-Cave I think most of you would still be proud to come race. I mean look at my unique kitchen. LOL What other woman do you know that has a dashboard on display in the kitchen and motorsports hall of fame guys on cabinet doors? LOL
