Sump or money pit?

There is currently a six-inch-wide trench being dug around the perimeter of my basement family room, a few-foot-deep-and-wide pit being dug under my porch, and it smells like dirt in much of the house now.

So goes the installation of a drain tile system. Read about it on my house blog. http://buildbetterbungalow.blogspot.com.

I'm too lazy to type it all out again. :)
