Monday, May 14, 2012 - Travel Day Home

Got up at the crack of dawn, grabbed some breakfast on the road, and headed home. Arrived good and early, but soon discovered that we had unexpected work to do. Seems Hubby had the clever idea to turn the well pump off before we left the last time we were home last time, but he forgot that the switch he pulled also turned off the heat lamps in the well house. The result was that all of the pipes and filters in the well house froze and burst over the winter, so we had no water. He made a quick assessment of what he needed before running down to the local hardware store, but even then we didn’t have it completed in time to have water by the end of the day. Good news was the rest of the house was in good shape, other than one dead mouse in the bathtub, so at least we were able to sleep in our own bed the first night!
