No mice or rodents in the car, although I think a spider was living there. Haven't seen him for awhile, maybe he got motion sick and left.
I'm leaving for vacation tomorrow. When I get back I'll try the battery disconnect
The tech mentioned the alternator. I imaging there is a way to test it in the shop.
Keep in mind, none to this existed until the battery died. It seems too much of a coincidence for it not to be related somehow. That's why I discount water and mice, in favor of a car component gremlin.
I may not be able to get it in the shop for a few weeks, but when I do and learn what the problem is, I'll repost.
Thanks for the advice.
