Thanks all!
Jeremy and Geoff,
I have no construction plans, we improvised off of the two photos.  I am happy 
to take more detailed photos this weekend.  When I do, I will add them to the 
Flickr folder linked above.  Also happy to answer questions via email.
Thanks again,
Erl

Erl,

This is brilliant, and just the thing I've been looking for to free up the 
garage. I don 't suppose, having gone through this recently, that you have 
plans that you can share? Otherwise we can improvise, and the photos will 
help.

Thanks,
/Jeremy

Congratulations Erl, Finally!  They look great.  I'd be envious except that 
I'd wouldn't need all that capacity (well, room to grow, I guess...).  Hope
