That is the strangest thing to me, being from So Cal. I never even knew that was a thing until watching a TV show where the guy didn't even know how to drive because he was from NYC, and always used public transportation.

We also have a lot of "stuff" in the garage. Our 3rd vehicle is parked on the street.

Good for you for cleaning out the garage. I've spent hours cleaning stuff out, but I still have many hours in front of me. It's exhausting work!
Wow, Sheri! That's so cool! I love old houses. I hadn't thought about them not having garages, though (unless they're added on later). That makes sense. I guess it's a good storage area.
Thanks! Yes, it's very exhausting work! I'll be so glad when it's done!

When we lived in an apartment, we had an assigned parking spot, and a one-car garage. Thankfully at the time, we only had/needed one car, so the garage was for storage. Where do you store things?
