The deathtrap that was our garage is now safe for hobbies again

Yep, I cleaned out the garage.  It's been clean enough to park both cars in it, but the "third" car section where I try my hand at woodworking and various other handyman stuff, and more importantly where my wife makes glass beads has literally been a deathtrap since there was no easy egress in or out should an emergency arise.

But no longer!  It is not only clutter free (except for my workbench top - that'll be the next big garage project), but swept, etc.  The bikes are hung back up out of the way - they were a big part of the danger issue.  Hopefully when the weather gets and stays warmer we'll be mindful of rehanging them after each ride and not just lazy "because we're going to ride them again the next day."

We started Gabe's bike riding lessons again today.  Last time (a year and a half ago) he broke his arm on his first day trying.  Today was more successful in that he didn't get hurt at all, but less in that as he's been doing for a lot of things lately that he doesn't want to do, he started crying because he doesn't want to exert the effort it takes to learn.

So he's sulking in his room until he can stop crying about it today.

That's all for this post.  Thanks for reading!
