Had I not discovered a problem there could have been serious mold/mildew buildup in the house.
Don't let it happen to you. Have someone check your house periodically. While they are about it, have them check your irrigation system. It only takes a few minutes and may only cost you a dinner out and save you a lot of expense and aggravation.

This is a great reminder - during July we were having daily heavy and prolonged tropical rains, we turned our irrigation off and it saved us $30 for the month of July. I walk every morning and I cannot tell you how many people, who are obviously gone for the summer, have been continually watering. It's a huge waste of water and money.
