new shelves in the basement!

Last Monday, we had a flood in the basement that soaked everything that was on the floor – I know – you aren't supposed to leave stuff on your basement floor. Well, we got caught. The silver lining to the cloud was that we now have much fewer corrugated cardboard boxes in our house and we built some pretty rugged shelves! There's enough room for 24 of the large "roughneck" containers and phase 2 will be some more shelving around the corner. As soon as "cleanup week" rolls around, we'll get rid of a bunch of other junk and the basement should be looking respectable :-)
