I think they should just leave it like that. Then in the bathroom cut a hole in the floor so you can **** and fish at the same time. :)

answer:

The standard rural two-lane bridge can hold a house with a one car attached garage.

ahhhh..too late, they should have contacted me before this happened and I could have told them the garage rule ;)
