The running boards take a little longer to prep because of the ribs, the doors should go quicker being big smooth surfaces. I'm just taking my time. Someone with more experience I'm sure would be a lot quicker than me. I'm trying to take it easy on my shoulder too or it could end up taking me longer..

Sump pump is doing good, There is so much water in the soil that its running in higher up. We got about 4" of rain last week to, that didn't run in.
