This shed thread reminds me of a shed I watched a fellow build on his lot where I could see it as I was driving by once or twice a week.
He posted pictures of it in one of the DIY magazines, I think a woodworking magazine.
From the pictures it looked to be about 10' wide and maybe 12' tall with a gambrel roof. It also had a lean-to shed on one side of it maybe 8' wide. He did a nice job and it looked really nice all painted. What no one else could tell from the pictures in the magazine taken from the front was that I swear that it could have not been much more than 4' deep...
It was like Benny Hill's mother's rhubarb pie. He said that she did not like cutting up the rhubarb so she made the pies 4 inches wide and 3 feet long.

When I built my "Workshop in the Woods" in '07 I purchased a 24'x28' garage package from Menards. The gambral roof allows for wood storage above and I will highly recommend this type of design. This is a two Shopsmith workshop, both are now powered on 240 V.
My blog on Lumberjocks is out of date. I plan to update it soon.

Ah, i thought you said "to ohio", not "to the ohio". Yes, well aware that the bridge is over the ohio. His mom's old place on the hill had a great view of the ohio.
