[papercreters] Re: Floors laid on dirt

Love it, Nori

We looked at a drop-dead gorgeous adobe home w/floors made from road
base. They looked good and thought I had hubby talked into that and
outa slab. I hate slab! Can tell you nightmares of plumbing gone
bad in slab. But woe is me, Hubby's talking slab again.
