Good morning all. Our truck has never seen the inside of our garage in the 11 years that we've lived here. Our other vehicle has been inside maybe four times in all those years. My priority for this space is my workshop although most everything was on wheels to move it out of the way if need be. I say, "was" because a lot of my tools are now in storage. Our new house will have a 2 1/2 car garage so I'll have more room to put my tools, I still don't know if there will be room for any vehicle to fit afterwards.... 
There's been rain in our forecast for the past week and still for the next four or five days, but we've not seen more than a tinkle in a while. Glad it's warm right now though, our hot water heater went out a few days ago and won't get replaced until tomorrow. During the summer months, our cold water sometimes is warm enough that we don't need hot water to shower with. We're fortunate that it happened now. If it happened two weeks earlier, we'd have had to get a new one on our dime. We closed escrow at the end of last month and the heater then was covered under the home warranty that we bought for our buyers. We are renting our old house for a few months until our new one is ready to move into. There still may be a few weeks where we could be homeless though, depending on the builder's schedule. It seems as if framers and drywallers are at a premium around here, more new construction than trade people available to build.
