Although it is also the child's right to move 3,000 miles from home so parents only ever see their grandkids but once every few years...

My back hurts from ripping up the poor excuse of a basement floor I currently have. Not even remotely close to level. I am moving my office to the basement to free up the extra bedroom. Somehow the first section I am working on ended up too low. Now I have to cart some of the waste back into the house, ugh. Good thing I'm only doing a small section of the floor.

Greg have you ever looked at the Dricore stuff that Home Depot has for basements.
DRIcore Subfloor Basement Flooring Home Page

I used it in my basement and on some jobs.
It made a big difference in how the floor feels and is a lot warmer.

andy i found that i couldnt open my doors after i powerwashed it in the winter. they would freeze shut. i put a little silicone spray on a rag and wiped all of the door seals and it worked great. your garage idea works much better i bet.
or just wash it inside and let it dry. thats the beauty of being at the FD lol

See ya there, Andy. I'll probably be heading up that way some time tomorrow to pick up some new snow boots. And I washed my truck at the car wash today. And I don't have a heated garage either so I'm driving an ice cube until it warms up a little. I think of it as a protective coating against salt.
