Right after blogging about simplicity and beautiful solutions I discovered that the basement is flooded. It seems the danger is pretty much over, now that the fumes from the upturned gas can, lawn mower, and god knows what all have been aired out. I called a friend of mine who has told me his nightmare stories about his flooding basement back in Kentucky and he offered his pump. Within 20 minutes, I had the pump hooked up, and was enjoying seeing the water shoot down the back of the hill. It’s still pumping away and I am eagerly waiting for the chance to get in there and see if the hot water heater can be put back to work. Okay, although the clean up is anything but elegant, there is something beautiful in this flood for me. I have it confirmed that I want that water heater brought up into the closet by the bathroom.
