    Storing a 'Rolla for the winter... interdasting o_O

    But, who am I to judge. I don't really bring the Camry out either in the winter slop.

    Had the day off due to a last minute cancelation/reschedule. Delivered a storm door to a customer this morning and then did an estimate on some rotten exterior trim.

    Had the afternoon free, so did some end of winter/spring stuff. Pulled the reflective plow stakes, serviced the snowblower and put it in it's summer spot, and pulled out the mower from said spot. My pressure washer fits nicely there as well. And replaced some rock where my gutter downspouts make contact with the ground. Used a smoother river rock this time. Made the space a litte bigger too. Used a 5 gallon bucket as a template. And got my tools all organized for the upcoming outdoor work season.

    Mid 60's today. Perfect day for all of the above.

    Have you ever had water problems in your basement? Those spouts look at bit close for my liking. However soil is vastly different here.

    I've had water issues way back, but only in extremely heavy snow melt in the spring on one corner of my house. It was in the unfinished part and ran right into a floor drain. A sump pump took care of that. It's not kicked on in over 5 years. Nothing at all where the downspouts are. That short one is near my driveway, so it immediately runs down. All the grade is away from my house so those others get the water away nicely as well. All the other's are at least 4' long.

    I am planning on extending the one on the back. The elbow on the bottom is pretty close to the ground. It like to get my mower under it. I'll cut a few inches off, which will then require a longer extension.

    Yea I had to shoot both of mine 20' out. The gutters are tied into the rainwater cistern, but the overflow I found out the hard way is piped into the weeping system. So if there's lots of rain and I haven't used the spigot much I have to open the lid and keep an eye on the water level. Gets to overflow then I divert into the yard. Weird setup, but kinda eco friendly in a way.

    Had a guy tell me once it's a bit loud for a 6cyl.
    I told him it was an exhaust leak.
