    I still need to finish this project. But the first Phase of running Electricity is done.

    I started it last fall but I have yet to dig the trench and lay down the PVC pipe and wire to connect it to the house on a more permanent basis

    I Installed 4 Outlets and 2 Lights. 1 Main light and a Smaller Light over the work bench. When this is finished the Shed will have it's own Dedicated 20AMP Circuit. All the wiring is 12/2 with a 20AMP GFCI protecting the entire circuit

    Thanks, as you can tell from the before pic I have a bit of empty space to fill in the backyard to say the least. This was step one. A little less to mow and some place to actually sit outside without being in sun or rain. Now there's a place to sit and daydream about what to do next. Pool planning in progress.............thinking maybe one of those endless wave things in the shallow end like on the cruise ships or waterparks, lol. Electricity bill will skyrocket running the pump for the surf action 24/7/365...maybe we'll go solar on the house to compensate:D Ahhh, life is but a dream..............
