<br>NOTE: As I'm not sure I've compacted the stuff into a single area yet, I may need to assist is sorting and picking (i.e. I may have some bits in the free pile that I need to hang onto as I just did a huge grab and haul to start the process and was getting kind of sloppy near the end :-) and the area will get crowded soon so I'm going to limit the number of people in the basement at any time to whatever makes sense (so be patient!). I have a handtruck and will have the dogs in their crates so the back gate can be opened.<br>
