Basement Flooding

Judy and I had a great weekend in Pocahontas County with Pix and Dan. We came home last evening to find that a crack had developed in the water pipe that feeds the cold water to the shower. We have a big job of cleanup today. There were several inches of water in basement. NO DRAIN! When we built the house, the contractors did not place a drain in the basement! Last evening we got most of the standing water. Paint on basement floor is now ruined and we are debating about the carpet.

Trying to decide if we need to tear up the carpet to allow water to get out of the pad and floor covering. Oh, another of life's adventures.

I was planning on blogging about this past weekend's trip. The postings will have to wait until this current adventure is in hand.
