It occurred to us that since we didn't end up making the Mt. Fuji trip, we didn't actually check out our car after it was returned to us on Friday. So Drew and I headed down to the garage today. The first thing we noticed when we opened the garage was the smell of mildew. Then we saw that there was mildew all around the garage. We had been so focused on the car last week that we had assumed it was just the car that was affected and we hadn't noticed all the other mildew. So, we're pretty sure that means it's not Lucy's fault. (It hadn't seemed a very likely cause in the first place, but it was all we could come up with when we had seen it only in the car.)
We guess the cause of the mildew was a hot humid Japanese summer and a garage with no ventilation that was closed up for a couple of months. Time to contact the landlord......
We currently have our Christmas tree, which had been stored in the garage, set up on our back patio. We wanted to air it out when we discovered the mildew, but now we're not sure what to do with it. The storage bag is mildewed, and we're waiting to hear back from the landlord. So the Christmas tree sits on the patio..... and sits......and sits. Will it still be there when it's time to decorate it?
