| rooffour006.jpg Lots of "stuff" involved here . . . |
rooffour008.jpg This area leaked and had drip pans, bowls, etc. for a long time! |
rooffour009.jpg I took out the old heater vents, etc. I love demolition . . . |
rooffour010.jpg Tree hit roof really hard and broke 3 of these. |

| rooffour012.jpg Bead boards -- some rot, some tree damage, will replace. |
rooffour013.jpg Lookout at corner under eave was damaged slightly and just needs to be re-nailed/screwed back in place. |
rooffour014.jpg I believe Gene called this repair "sistering" boards to repair broken ones. They look stronger than the original ones now. |
rooffour015.jpg Plywood used here instead of bead board. |

| rooffour017.jpg 2 x 4s used in building this years ago have warped or bowed and caused slight sinking look. Guys will "shim" and make it more properly sloped as best they can. |
rooffour018.jpg Temperatures have been so hot, after 2 p.m. the guys find stuff to do on lower levels til quitting time. |
rooffour019.jpg Nice new bead board. |

rooffour023.jpg Missing molding replacements. |
rooffour024.jpg I've been on the North side roof many times cleaning off moss and oak leaves. But never, never got up nerve to go up on this one. [smile] |
rooffour025.jpg The other side big board is in place now. Shimming and plywood to follow. |
rooffour026.jpg I haven't been up at 7 a.m. for so many mornings in a row for many years! I kind of like it, but think I'll go back to getting up around 9 a.m. when the guys stop waking me up early! [smile] |
