Phase One: Installing the Washer & Dryer

In my basement (to be precise, at the end of the “garage”) I’m setting up the Kenmore washer & dryer that came with the house. Oh, if it were as simple as that last sentence sounds. The previous owners of the house evidently drained the washer into the garage floor, and so on. I’m determined to Bring It Up To Code, and have retained a plumber and an electrician to arrive on Thursday, 9/26/02, for all the technical connections and such.

Meanwhile, I’ve been constructing — from scratch, mind you — the platform for these units. On Monday (9/23/02) I hit Lowe’s and returned with a CR-V full of lumber & masonry.
