It's That Time of the Year - 1

Last year in mid July, two we-still-talk-about-it-a-year-later events occurred. During a storm, a tree in our backyard split down to the ground and fell onto our chain link fence. Most of the tree ended up in our neighbor’s yard. Over the next couple of days we had the tree removed and the fence repaired.

Just two days later, my Dad did what he calls “a wheelie” on his riding lawn mower falling into the aforementioned chain link fence. As it turns out, that was his last time on the mower. His primary care physician told him it was time to retire his motor vehicles.

Well, it’s mid July once again and yesterday our hot water heater decided it was time to retire. After an emergency call to our local repairman, our hot water heater was shut down.

Because of the changing of the guard in taking care of Dad, I have no idea where the paperwork for the water heater is located. So, Monday we find out if the warranty is still good.

Looks like we will soon have a brand new water heater.

Hope that’s it for this year.
