Thanks alot everyone.

I went ahead and put that last can of Thompsons on it, all over every edge, post, and any wood i could reach with my brush.

Naw, Blatterjr, I wasnt wise enough to put waterseal on the underside of the flooring before I put it up.
Im still kicking myself for not buying the betterm waterproof stuff. If only I had known about it...

You might want to put down a finish floor of thin, smooth plywood when it's all dried in,

I've used sealed OSB as a finish floor over subflooring for aesthetics... its used as exterior roof decking and exterior sheathing, but never left exposed for long.

I'm sure you can find plenty a contractor that says its ok for an undetermined period of time, but "20-years of doing it wrong doesn't make it right."

Cover it with some "Visqueen"

At most, some seams may pucker a little.

I put several tubes of wood sealant stuff made for sealing wood, decks, flooring to itself, and particle board type stuff in every joint and crack where the tongue and groove went together.
While we were in the hospital it rained the wife said, so Its already had one big dose of rain without any sealant or anything on it.

Yesterday and today was around 80° so im sure it dried pretty good before I treated it. Tommorrow is suppose to be nice, and then several more days of rain (of course it changes everytime I look), so Im hoping to go after the 2x4's I need to make walls.

Hopefully we can make a wall or two tommorrow night once the wife gets home and get right back on it.
