I call this my "I Love Lucy Moment".
Had an ice maker that did not turn off,
and I forgot to manually shut it off
before leaving on a 9 day vacation.
Well when we returned and one of the
kids opened the freezer, ice cubes
flooded (avalanche) the whole kitchen.
Cannot imagine what a mess it would
have been if the cubes had forced the
door open earlier.
