We had some rain in eastern Massachusetts last weekend. OK, it was a lot of rain. On top of ground that was already saturated. I’m glad now that the leak around the water pipe happened a couple of weeks before, because the repair I made with Loctite epoxy putty worked perfectly, and Sumpy did his job, so we’re OK.
Dennis, sorry to say, didn’t fare as well at his house. He is living every collector’s nightmare. Fortunately, no valuable comic books were lost. If it had been me, an inch of the water would have come from my tears.
“My collectibles, books, records, etc., that aren’t salvageable are probably a total loss. Just the Whitburn books are over a thousand or more — the Bruce Spizer Beatles Book — that’s just the tip of the iceberg. I am saving stuff as best as I can that has sentimental value. It’s ruined as a collectible, but it means something to me.”
