Tony to the Rescue

Had it not been for Tony being in the house when Alan and I were still out working in the yard, we'd have had a worse water mess in the basement. I was watering in some transplanted perennials when the water quit coming out of the hose. Odd I thought. So I went and asked Alan what he thought might be wrong. By the time we both went to the house, Tony was on his knees sopping up water on the wood floor by the fireplace and stairs. He said he knew I was outside when he heard a sound like someone running a bath downstairs where there is no tub. With water pouring through the ceiling, he quickly shut off the supply and started mopping it up. Only a little of the carpet got wet. Good thing it was clean water and Tony was right there to save the day!!
