Made a trip down to my parents home this weekend. My dad is up in age and having health problems so we went down to lend a hand. While gone Missouri had a couple of its coldest nights getting into single digits. We didn't think it was any big deal as we had our heater on. Little did we expect but it failed to stay lit. This led to our water lines freezing and bursting in the ceiling above my home office/man cave. The ceiling gave way and the blown insulation came down with it. When we got home the water was running out under the wall in front of the house. The office, living room, bathroom and laundry room were flooded as well. We are starting the cleanup to find out what is ruined. I know one laptop a couple desktops, LCD monitors and printer are toast at this point. My nice leather pipe case and several pipes may be salvageable but there were lots of other good pipes on the desk we have to dig out and check as well as other things.
While its bad enough, it could have been much worse.
The clean up continues.
