My Name is Travis Evans. I have been married since 2007 to my wife, Kira Evans. We have a Three girls, Kenzie Lou, Jacee Pink, and Emmy Jeanne. My wife has been doing the blog thing for a few years now, you can follow her comments @ travisandkiraevans.blogspot.com. Her blog covers our family and things we have done. Me, I'm going to cover what I call TKDesign. TKDesign is an idea which stands for creativity, execution, purpose, and family. Family with the "TK." TK gets its roots from a high school love story. A simple representation of two teenagers love, T+K. In our later years we dropped the "+" and now "TK" represents us, our family, and our values. Design, as the English dictionary defines it; to create, fashion, execute or construct according to plan, to have a purpose, to devise for a specific function or end, to make a drawing. We can sum up the definition with these three words; Creativity, Execution, and Purpose. You put these four things together; Family, Creativity, Execution, and Purpose and you have the idea of TKDesign. So you'll get my thoughts on sports, cars, designs, and my family. So if that Interests you feel free to read on!

Garage - Day 35-39

We've had a few good days of progress. I got a lot of little things done and two big things done. Lets start with the little things...


Finished fixing the window openings and adding the headers!


Had to open the window by another foot.


All done and header in place.


Built small wall to support the roof beam.


Summary of day 35 & 37.


Day 36 dad came over to help put in the garage man door. Just two windows and a garage door to put in.


Trusses came on Friday.


Saturday (Day 38) we hosted them into place and set the back half up.


How we look from the back.


We also got the front wall in place. It is starting to take its shape.

Day 39, big day! We stick framed the remaining trusses for the back half and and we were able to get it sheeted in full. Thanks to both dads for spending Labor Day laboring for me.


Here is one angle.


Here is another angle.

It has started to look like my CAD model. Take a look for yourself.
