Water Water Everywhere, And Not A Drop To Drink

One of the downfalls to nice Spring storms in Tennessee is blown off shingles. The turret on the front of the house apparently lost some shingles in the last storm, and water found its way inside.





It has flooded the foyer, and soaked down through the hardwoods settling in the unfinished basement




What we were really fascinated by was the choice of "bucket" that the Fannie Mae cleaning crew thought was acceptable to catch the water continuing to come from the ceiling (at the rate of about a third of a gallon and hour)





Yes, the McDonald's McCafe Cup-----what a fine bucket it is. The Good News is, Fannie Mae should have a contractor out tomorrow to repair the roof, we won't be responsible for that. The bad news is, they won't fix the damage caused by this, so we will have to replace a wall in the foyer, the ceiling, and possibly the floor.
