Summer Fun leading to Winter Storage?

Summer is in full swing here in Coeur d'Alene. I was out by the Spokane River this morning and there were several people out waterskiing, wakeboarding, fishing, or just kayaking. While I don't want to cast doom on the wonderful summer we've had I can't help but wonder where everyone is storing their beautiful boats, RV's, Kayaks, Jetskis...once this amazing weather dies off.

I know a handful of people keep their prized posessions at their GarageTown unit, but where does everyone else keep them? A large amount of people keep them in their garage. This presents several problems. In the winter when their boat is kept inside where do they keep their truck that was in the garage all summer? Keeping Jetski's or Kayaks in the garage is equally as troublesome. Not only do they take up the other vehicles space, but they don't fill it up. Being a "down home boy" I always try to fit as much stuff as I can into the space provided, so having to bump my truck or car out of the garage some the space can be filled half way with a couple summer toys just seems wrong to me.

A large amount of the remainder of people keep their passions at a rental storage facility. I don't have to go on too much about how I don't like this idea. While it is a secure site it isn't a sound investment. Money spent on rent is money never re-captured, and that's just crazy.

GarageTown not only makes sense financially and physically, but also emotionally. What are all these people going to do in the winter with their friends that come hang out with them all Summer long? Put them in their garage? Rent them a storage space? No. They will see them at GarageTown.
