April Showers arrived in San Antonio around 1am this morning. It rained for several hours. Now it has started to rain again. Thank goodness we had put compose on our yard last week. I hope it will be clear this weekend, so we have a beautiful day for the plant swap. Barbra

chad_m, The humidity comes from the snowy cars coming in and melting off day after day, night after night. It's one of the issues besides operating cost of a tight, heated garage. The humidity plus road salt equals bad news for your vehicles. I have the tubes in the floor and have not yet hooked up the heat source for mine and this is one of the concerns I have. There are some humidifiers that work at lower temps, but some just keep a window cracked. This'll make the green police shudder of course. So you have the cost to heat it, then dehumidify it. In my case gas is free so the heat angle doesn't bother me one bit, but I don't want to rust out my cars so I'll probably bite the bullet on humidification. My garage has a future apartment above it so keeping the garage at 50 degrees would help keep the apartment floor warm. I had a master bedroom and closet over an unheated garage at the last house and the floor temp difference was noticeable.

Hi Luvs and Jay..thanks for looking for me! I haven't been on line in a few days.. Today I made 15 trips up and down the basement stairs bringing the chiars and all the equip back. It rained, so I had to seat 18 inside at tables... So I am tired.. I have only a few pics to post..it was pretty much the same decor as the anniv party I gave last year.. Tomorrow...
