... it pours all over the inventory on the back wall...
I ventured out through the rain to go into the garage today to get ready for tomorrow's bookfair, and I heard a "drip-drip-drip" coming from the back. Upon turning on the light, I saw a steady stream of water flowing through the back ceiling and down some of the shelves. I haven't totaled up the inventory that was damaged yet. I guess that's what I've been paying insurance over the last six years for.
In light of this discovery in the garage, I checked throughout the rest of the house for leaks. What I thought would be problem areas are bone dry, but there is a couple of places that will need to be re-flashed, as there are leaks in the attic near two of the chimneys and the vent stack.
The rain also brought the mud back in the back yard, so I have to hike all of the books (in Rubbermaid totes, of course) from the garage down to the road to load the trailer.
I almost preferred the snow!
