Everyone defines "success" differently. For some nothing short of winning the race will do, for others just finishing is a victory in and of itself.
A good return on an investment, securing your dream job, winning the big game are all examples of "success."
Each spring here at the Northwood Cabins we define success by the number of broken waterlines. We are glad to say by this standard the spring of 2019 has been a huge success with only ONE break. In years past it has been easier to count the cabins without breaks, then those that had one...or two...or three.
Cabin 3 was the culprit, we traced it to the shower as that was the spot at which we could see water pouring out of the cabin. It was decided that the path of least resistance was by cutting a hole in the wall between the bathroom and the bedroom, and by "cutting" we mean smashing it in with a hammer.
We found the break, it was the hot water line for the shower, which is odd because who would have thought that hot water would have froze...hmm. The leak was at the point where the vertical iron pipe joined the lateral cooper line feeding the mixer valve. This break was inevitable from the day this line was installed, it was just a matter of time. It's surprising that it lasted 50 or 60 years.
It was an easy, quick fix, and on the plus side we gained an electrical outlet. When we opened the wall, we found a box had been plastered over. So now as well as not having a leak, we have a light above the bed as well as a place to charge your phones.
We thought the plug cover would cover the hole, but on second thought maybe the hammer was a bad idea. Either way the bead board looks nice.
30 days and counting, summer can't get here quick enough.
