Drop Zone just off the garage entry

We created a drop Zone just off the garage entry into the Mud Room. The were places for the mail to be sorted by name, a palce to hang bookbags & umbrellas. An area where you can charge your phone & PDA's and other items needed charging. A large bench seat to sit and change your shoes or remove your boots. There are large pullout draws under the bench seat to store your pet foods and a place for the Fire extinguisher. There's a chalk board on the side for messages to the family just coming home and a large Key hanger for those keys that always seem to get lost. There was a pet shower on the other side of the drop zone for those muddy pets. So when Mom is aksed " do you know where my ....... is" she says " Did you check in the drop zone?"
