you can't really see it too well but there is a large trail of water running down the ceiling
Apparently some water got under our lino in the bathroom and carpet in the upstairs hall way/stairs and leaked down into the basement stairwell. we don't know exactly how it got there but during the 4 days that we were away it was able to do some damage. it was pretty sad considering we just finished the basement.
we think it might have happened because we might have had some frozen water in the exhaust fan pipe going outside and it melted on a warmer day while we were gone. The reason being the water seemed to come from no where and it stopped all by its self.
I guess this is why we have home insurance.
For the past week we have had workers ripping up the carpet, putting holes in the freshly painted walls and running large fans constantly for a few days in order to dry things out.
This being said, it's still good to be home

So Sad! I am so glad that it wasn't running water that went on and on for four days. Another example of a tender mercy. I am grateful for insurance as well. Two blogs in a row wow! Rich you are getting to be a blogger...careful it is addicting.
Yikes! I'm sure that was exactly what you guys wanted to find on returning home. I hope it all got sorted out okay.
The renos are going fairly quickly and smoothly. Tomorrow the guys will be by to sand, prime and texture. I'm glad it's just a small area. It will be nice to have my house back!
