Garage Shelves

I finished up the garage shelves today and did a whole bunch of little things around the place. It was a real nice day to be outside puttering around.
 I used wire mesh for some of the shelf and plywood for another third of the shelf length and left the middle third open so tall items could be stored on the existing shelf that is right below the new shelf. Picked up the deer skull on a Hardy Boys Hike in NJ, back in the 1990s.

Current Blooms:
Lots in bloom this week, periwinkles, daffodils, tulips, squills, grape hyacinth, snow cap. I've posted photos before so it seems redundant to do it again.
The peonies are sprouting, lilac are in bud, sweet woodruff will soon be blossoming, spring is in full swing.

Estate Staff Update:
Gunther is out of hospital. While we were bolting pictures to the walls in the Long Gallery with a crossbow in preparation for Easter festivities, Gunther sneezed, I flinched, the bolt went astray and his arm got attached to the wall not the picture as planned. Gina drove him to hospital, no major arteries were hit, no big deal. Though he is back from hospital, he has a doctors note specifying he should be limited to light duty.

  1. Excellent. It's nice that you were able to cobble up these base materials in order to build your garage shelves. I like that you allocated an area for tall tools, so that you can store them on the lower shelves without having to squeeze them under the new ones. The wire mesh was a nice touch, by the way. Thanks for sharing!
