The Canadian Champion, Wednesday, October 29, 2008 RE-li1 Indoor project:, Insulating your basement of rainsteet, snow and bail thosv winter, it doesn't mean that you need to be down and out during the snowy season. n fact, even though most people are cooped up in their homes for most of the winter, there are a number of projects that can be done in the home, which can help keep you active and busy untilI warmer spring temperatures asrive.
