We've been on Welch since 1950--some significant dock damage in 1979-80 when the ice bent some 10" I Beams up at a 45 degree angle. (North side) Two years ago a tree fell on the tool shed (south side). That's about it. An occasional split pipe is to be expected, but I never figured out how a vertical pipe in the shower split. It should have self drained. A good opportunity to teach my daughter some basic plumbing skills. It's all part of the adventure. And it's all easier than Florida hurricanes.

Yep Had that happen once myself.... Only thing I could figure was a slight twist and fatigue...
