Go right ahead funnyboy!!! Don't forget the bearing wall in there!
I must say after careful review that is quite a garage! Too bad I can't spend my days playing with paper cutouts!

Busy baking!

Hey TMGRobyn, I didn't burn this batch! Made "extra" MINIs, just in case.
Had to take a picture of the sunset during the dirty dish invasion!

Built!

For some reason, couldn't attach third picture... computer stuff is not my skill. Eating cookies is!
Now to looking at pictures from people back east to research what that white stuff on the ground and such is... Wouldn't a covered bridge be cool?

Load bearing.

The load bearing walls have the notches (cut with 1/8tsp.), the vigas (*) are bearing the gingerbread roof. The end walls really aren't bearing much.
I "play" with paper by drawing plans, paper cuts suck! It could be dangerous! And the so-called International Building Code wouldn't allow this garage to be built... *The canes are not "Vegas" as in Chevy; I'm always correcting clients on that bit of architectural trivia.

Okay, I bow to your greatness oh great CR owner! That is a very nice Arizona garage! And, quite a fleet of MINIs too! Covered Bridge? Nah, you couldn't see the MINI!

Oh and nice tree! Did you fit it through the sunroof???

My problem is the operator! Bites of cookies is easier to understand than bytes of information.

Thanks.

Thank you Donna/Mike, MINI Monkey, minims, and chrisneal!
I will eat it. First the car will do a monster broadslide into the building. The insurance company will then eat the damage!
Martha who?
