I'm not sure selling your wife is legal, even in Duffield VA. With a population of 71 it's bound to be noticed.

heads up - it will be the last place you look.....
Good luck - had a couple of customers at the hardware store this past week dealing with frozen pipes. None busted that I know of. Not working today to know if there were any problems overnight, but looking at the cameras, there doesn't seem to be a lot of activity in the store this morning.

Pretty sure you will find it when it thaws.

Plug it when you isolate your hose bibs & unplug when you open them up when freeze warning is over.

Yes that's my mailbox 3 years ago. 27 foot above normal. Worst since 1977 when it wiped town of Clinchport out. Now with the upcoming rain and snow melt........... it's really a sight seeing whole trees ans cars float by! LOL

MANY upgrades but the old 302 is tired. Will put a crate in it if I keep it.

It doesn't help in the short run, but I have a hydronic system for emergency heat. Still need electricity, but it's hot water from a boiler running to the air handler. Mine, you have to kick on manually, which I don't like, but the electric emergency heat will make the meter spin like a top.
Funny I had you for an EV guy!

Terrific, frozen between well and house, obviously wasn't built for near zero temps for a week. Phucked up, should have let water run yesterday. HOPEFULLY above freezing temps today will thaw without damage.
