A 'wee' bit wet

The storm that tore through northwestern Wisconsin on July 1 spared Loveless, but it apparently whalloped the weeHouse as it sat on a frontage road in the town of Siren.
A tree branch fell on the roof and caused enough water damage, that this was the scene when Chris and I went to check it out last weekend. Shrouded in plastic and completely stripped to studs inside.





It was a bit of a shocker. Alchemy is all-pro, though. They’re fixing the roof, replacing the rotten wood and installing a whole new interior – floors, walls, ceiling, light fixtures, and kitchen cabinets, pretty much everything but the kitchen sink.
I heard on the drive home tonight that 2 million cords of wood are on the ground, a year’s worth of harvest.
