Steve Peck's garden shed

Steve Peck writes: "We have an odd lot that has made our landscaping, and gardening a bit more complicated. And over the years, our outdoor storage was too far from where it needed to be. So, as an untrained carpenter; I built a small garden shed that has made the seasonal work much easier to complete, and enjoy."
