On the Tombigbee, Dec 01, 2008"

Preliminary report on the vent sealing project

[Dec 4] After this mornings fairly steady drenching rain there appears to be some progress with the leaks. The leak resulting in the stream across the floor shown in the photo here on November 15th seems to be fixed. But the other one under my desk / aft of the shower leaked just a tiny bit. I'll have to reserve final judgement on the one by the door until after a heavier rain or two but the other one obviously needs further attention. Darn these things are elusive!
