Dad's Advice

My parents came down on July 23-24. As far as the basement goes my dad and I discussed some of my plans and tried to figure out what I was going to do. Most of the time was spent with him telling me I am nuts and going to create imense amount of work. My response repeatedly was that I wanted to do it right to begin with so I wouldn't regret it later. His usual response was perfection is great but it is really expensive and hard.

We talked about my electrical hopes. We also debated the need to pull down the center stud wall. Lastly we talked about the tile in my basement and if I should worry about removing it.
