Flood Pictures

Last week on Tuesday (April 17, 2007) a washer hose broke on my clothes washer flooding the house. Here are some of the pictures Kate and Gerardo took when they found it. It is dry now but we have not started to do the repairs yet.


This is where the water hose broke.

The kitchen floor and table.

Basement.

Down bath wall.






More pictures of the upstairs.

Driving Vacation April 2007

I didn't get any pictures of my friends in Battle Creek: Alicia and Ed, Grace, Win, the Cary's, or the Hamiltons. I had a very nice visit with all of them.

The original home of the Buffalo Hot Wings. They were very good! I drove back from Buffalo, 970 miles in 15 hours, 64.6 MPH average speed.

 

FLOOD, Update!!!

I had a nice vacation trip to visit Battle Creek, Ohio, and Buffalo, New York. On my return I found that the hose on the washer had broken flooding the house. Kate had stopped over to pick up her dog to find that YiYu was swimming in the laundry room. The cat is fit to be tied.


There are three steps in the process, the first is drying out the house, the second is removing everything that got wet, the last step is the reconstruction. These are pictures of the remediation, drying out the house.
Kate has pictures of the flood as it was taking place and I will post those on another post along with my trip pictures.

Minneapolis Sportsman's Show

We went to the Show to look at motorhomes. There was a nice collection. Kate liked to pretend to drive. Most were a lot bigger than what I wanted.




After looking at the whole collection, we decided that this is all we could afford.


Afterwards we went to the BullDog in Minneapolis for some beers and burgers. Kate had the 'Junk' burger, Gerardo had the 'Truffle' burger, and I had the 'House' burger. We all had beers.
