Cold? I have to share about how frigging cold it is up in these parts right now. Our forecast? High today of 5 (yes, 5) with a windchill factor of -15 to -20. Brrrrr!
I am beginning to hate this New England weather. Man, it sucks. Time to update the resume and get movin' South. Any jobs opening in the Charlotte area? I have always wanted to live in the heart of NASCAR country.... Ray BTW, glad to hear you pinpointed the leak. With all that water that seeped into the wall, shouldn't you be worried about mold in the future? Not even close to an expert on the subject, but it was the first thing that I thought of reading the story.
