I needed a nice out of the way place to store stuff. Someplace I could leave things for a while and no one would mess with them. I chose the attic. It's hot, cramped, and inconvenient. I could leave stuff up there for years and no one would bother it. (and I have) I spread out some carpet remnants and deer skin rugs in the high traffic areas, and up it came. (There's more behind me that isn't in the picture.)
