Daylight basement
Think of a regular basement which is totally below ground. A daylight basement is still under the house, but the house is built on a sloping lot. As a result, the basement is accessible from outside (french doors on the back side of the house in this case) and it has windows, sometimes on 3 sides, but in my case it's 2 sides. Therefore, you get "daylight" into the basement via the windows and doors.

hunting camp
I have booth my bikes at my deer hunting camp right now for the winter with my 72 monte carlo. I think that I am going to build a shed next summer to keep booth bikes in next winter. My old lady likes to park her mini van in the garage in the winter so she dosnt have to brush off snow in the morning, & I am restoring a 69 chevy pickup on the other side of the garage. So like I said a shed just for bikes sounds preety good to me right now. I think that I will try to make anogh room for parting in too. I dont seem to be able to figure out how to get my pictures small enough to put on here, sorry no pics for you.

Sucks to live in Seattle. Been here all my life. You hear, it's so beautiful, the mountains, the sea, blah, blah, blah. There's a 2 month riding season up here, July and August. Yea, I'm a ***** for not riding in the rain and cold. Wife won't leave here. I'm going to miss her when I retire and move south

I live in a downtown high-rise, and I have secure underground parking, but I don't keep it here over the winter. Even though it is secure, it's too "public" of an area for me to keep it here over the winter. Also, there's no outlets to plug in the battery tender. So, I keep it in my girlfriend's garage for the winter, where it's safe, warm and plugged in. Plus, it gives me one more reason to go visit her (as if I need more reasons)!

although the last time I changed the oil, I found a small piece of the chain tensioner.
so I am going to rebuild it next year.
