Good news!  We found a place that the wife likes and it has a very large garage!  Only about a mile from work, too.     
 
It's 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms in a gated parco (subdivision).  Circular section of the house is for a large marble staircase.  We have roof access and a nice view of the bay and Mediterranean.  Small pool in the back yard, too.  We should be here for 2 or 3 years.
Garage will house my tools -- 90% are in storage in the states, but they're being shipped here now and should be here in about 90 days.  
Here's half of my garage space (had a detached 2 car garage as well) when I lived in Columbus, Georgia - 2011-2013.  Will have to find room for 80 gallon compressor, tool boxes, bench, grinder, parts washer, blast cabinet, welder, shop press, etc, etc.
