Oceans of water...

We all had a fantastic time in Perdido Key. We arrived back home Saturday. Unfortunately, what we arrived home to was not quite as lovely as the ocean had been. It seems that at some point last week, our hot water heated busted. It most likely ran for 3-4 days, before the water was turned off. Our closet, master bedroom, laundry room, and likely our back kitchen wall were all seriously damaged. It is already growing mold.

We were lucky though, that it doesn't seem we lost any possessions of value. We are also very lucky to have Justin's family nearby to take us in. (It appears that they still love us, even after spending a solid week with us.)

So we are staying with them and awaiting word from our home owner's insurance adjuster. He is supposed to contact us by tomorrow. Meanwhile, I am trying to get used to operating a laptop, and trying to figure out how to get my vacation pictures on this computer.

I hope to have a longer update up soon!

Oh No! Thats terrible!
Everyone I know whose hot water heaters have busted were outta town at the time.

I'm looking forward to seeing some pics!

So sorry about your troubles. I agree with Heather about it only happens when you're out of town. That and the washing machine hoses busting. Glad you had a great vacation!

So sorry you came home to that mess! I'm hoping all will go well with repairing the damage. Miss your posts.

Oh dear. What a pain. Hope you manage to get it all sorted soon.

This is a smacky mess. Happened to me about 15 years ago, and I think I might need to get a new water heater as a protective measure. Nothing like walking down in the morning onto a carpet that feels like a sponge!
