Hey folks,
I've got a cellar under the barn that I may be able to spend a little time on this winter. The floor is 2/3 paved with bricks and flat/sloped a little to a drain but the 1/3 on the end where the drain is has been dug in and has a pretty low spot that collects ground water when the weather is wet.
Haven't been in there in a few months and today there was no water collected. It's still wet outside, maybe a shift in the ground water (??).

Then, maybe I can get some use out of the cellar. With coal being in the ground for millions of years, it should do OK to fill the hole in my basement shouldn't it?
