After violent weather in San Francisco on Tuesday and sullen weather yesterday, the sun came back today with extra force. I noticed this bottle of water and its shadow-casting cap as I emerged from the kitchen, where no plumbing failed today. I hope it will be a long time before more plumbers have to be summoned to Spencer Alley (as discussed here a few days ago). But of course am glad and grateful and relieved to know there is an altogether new pump inside the toilet tank.
