Dave worked on the lawn crew this morning - I just hung out! After Dave got home, I told him I was smelling burning coffee, but the coffee pot was off and the pot was empty. Oh well. Around 2:15, I decided to take a short nap. I set my phone alarm for 3:30 because I had a 4:00 meeting. About 3:35 Dave came rushing around the house saying he was smelling hot or burning wiring, but he couldn't find anything. I went outside and the smell was really strong in the lanai. I didn't smell it in the house or outside. I called 9-1-1 and got the fire truck here. They found it right away. It was the hot water heater. It was a good thing we were here and smelled it - we could have been homeless tonight had we been gone! Guess what's going on around here tomorrow? We'll be getting a new water heater and the guys are going to install it. I think I'll go shopping or something!
More later...
