Will and I talk about daily habits, and how to get stuff done and what works for us. Will is good at project management, I am not. Its a good conversation. We then talk about how to install a french drain, how basement walls can crack from poor drainage, and how to waterproof the wall that is leaking. Then a tangent on drywells. We then talk more solar, as Will has made a simple solar system for a cabin and a insulated box to keep the solar battery from freezing.
