Wow Steamguy! That was quite the adventure. When our little dog was still alive, it never failed that a smoke alarm or security alarm device would say it needed new batteries. Of course, they say they need batteries by emitting a beeping sound and ALWAYS in the middle of the night. Now, I probably could have slept through those little beeps. However, my dog would be in my face. If you could read her mind, she was saying help me daddy, the evil beeps are going to kill me! I have a Simply Safe alarm system. There are probably 15 little battery operated devices all over the house, so it becomes a hunt. Advance 10 feet, pause and wait for the next beep. Then advance in that direction, pause and listen. After a painfully long time, the offending device is found and the battery ripped out of it so you can get back to bed.
Charles, those modular homes are pretty cool. My sister and B-I-L had a modular home built about 45 years ago in upstate NY where they get about 200" of snow each year. The home has been good for them except for the roof pitch. Some winters, my B-I-L has to get on the roof and shovel off the snow. Not a good thing for a man in his mid 70's.
Here lately, our posts require a weather report. We started our day at 15° and are supposed to hit a high of 46°. Heat wave! I'm sure the rest of our snow will away.
