The burned-out phone line box
This is what you get when the person hired to power-wash the walkway doesn't realize how hot the washer motor can get. Nor pay attention to the fact that said motor is at the exact height of our Century Link phone boxes, which are exposed along the walkway. Inside the house, what you get is a dead phone line and no WiFi connection. Ah, well, life is like that and the fellow was young and we all make mistakes. Good thing Century Link was great and came out the next day, replaced the box, and made sure everything was up and running. Yay!
