ADT Security alert

No fire, no break in, but the house alarm went off this afternoon. ADT called Angie first, she called Connie, who called me. Evidently Angie couldn't go down to see why the alarm went off and Connie couldn't find her keys to the house (she went down anyway; we had a good reunion once the excitement died down). The fire department was called by ADT because it was a smoke detector (in the basement) that set off the alarm. When I got there to let everyone in, we discovered that there was no fire or smoke. The alarm probably went off because of moisture on the  ceiling dripping on the alarm. It was very hot and muggy/humid yesterday, so I am not surprised. This has happened before. At least this time it was in the day time! I left the alarm on the kitchen table because I couldn't find any new batteries.
The 2 big fire trucks wouldn't go over the bridge because they didn't know what the weight limit is on the new bridge. As in the past, just the smaller truck drove up to the house. They looked in all the windows while they were waiting for me and the key, to make sure no one was inside hurt, etc. They didn't want to break in unless there was evidence of a fire or medical emergency.
They would like a sign at the bridge indicating weight limit (like we had many years ago). They also asked if we could put a sign at the bridge indicating the house number and an arrow pointing across the bridge. They weren't sure how far down the road the house was.
So now the security system has 3 malfunctioning elements (kitchen window, dining room back door, and now basement smoke detector).

That was the excitement for the afternoon.
