Pretty much done now. Some minor stuff to do but waiting for materials to build the door for the shed portion and do the landscaping around.

And of coarse now it's time to start on the inside like electrcal.

At least you have a decent place to work and keep things, looks pretty good to me! I have to go to my parents place to have a shed of any kind.... It isn't far away, but it sure is nice to have one off your doorstep.
