You could send some of that rain our way! It's been dry and hot here.

sorry Alicia, any extra rain we have here, we send to Art..
I have been following a thread on another web . the couple there are finishing off the inside of their pole building. using 3/4 CDX on the interior walls. they must be anticipating running heavy equipment into the walls, ??
Art, isn't it a satisfying feeling to have clean floors in the garage ?

way back when, I partitioned the garage into two sections. the one section is my shop. I painted the floor. that is the last time i ever saw the floor ..

It is where the vac could reach, under all the pallets around the edge is another story.
Hope to get under most of those this fall.
Floor was not screed to drain properly, so water can stand along wall, and the drain is long saturated with sediment so it barely drains.

It sounds like you have one of those small man holes in the center of the floor ?? we are not allowed to put those in any more.. ground contamination. I sort of inadvertently got around that issue. my floor is cracked all to pieces so drainage is not a problem.. LOL
as far as the pallets go:
out of sight, out of mind..

I went and re did the air layer on the apple branch ..
I think I will pick some apples so that Annie can surprise me with an apple pie..

It rained hard last night and sounds like it could rain again. All or nothing here.
Hubby is getting the slack contractor guys to put in my bathtub. I am against hiring those guys, but he couldn't get anyone else to call him back to give a quote.
I got one brooder out of the bathroom so far. And i was scraping the toilet ring with a razor blade. Ew. I hate cleaning!
