3/24/23: Removed an undated Ranson sign from the front yard. A gutter downspout on the left side of the house is missing the splash guard to prevent erosion when raining see photo below.

It looks like maybe the pool pavers were power washed and some of it got into the pool, photos below.All of the blinds are open and there is a lock box on the door so I’m assuming it’s either up for sale or soon will be. I left the toilet seat down due to this. I’ll just check for mold under them when I come next time. I light is on in one of the bedrooms, photo below.
3/22/23: Visual check of the car, battery maintainer lights were on. The bedroom outer wall still has 2 foot high of the drywall removed. There is a small water spot in the left back corner of the den, reported previously. The humidity was much better. I turned the thermostat back up to 75. The water main valve under the sink in the master bathroom is now leaking all the time that it is turned on. I changed out the paper towel and put more a new paper towel under it after I shut it off and it was not leaking at that time. However, I just don’t think you should trust that valve much longer. It’s time to think about changing it out.
