Project Roof Repair and Tree Termination
We woke up this morning to rain! What a bummer because everyone was supposed to come over around 7:30am in order to get to work! But because of the rain we had to delay it until about 11:00. No breakfast for the guys....just lunch.
Here is Jeremy sporting his double layer fleece "oven mitt" that I made him. The cold weather really hurts his arm so he asked me to whip this up for him.
I'd tell you all about what they are doing, but I don't have a clue. All I know is that they made a big mess and a lot of noise. But it was all worth it! Dennis McClendon (far left), Paul McKay (in attic), and Alan McClendon (bottom) worked on the roof all day.
Jonathan Cipolla and Scott Comptois worked on the tree termination. They cut the tree up and hauled it up to our burn pit.
The new shingles match pretty well! They all worked so hard all day long, but they got the job done.
Jeremy Ross: Supervisor!
Once the rain cleared out it turned out to be a very nice day!
Jonathan split some of the wood up so that Scott could use it in his outdoor burn pit.
Here is Scott using his chainsaw to cut up the tree. He has been talking about using his chainsaw to cut up that tree ever since it fell on the house. I guess it's a man thing!
They worked until the sun went down and the temperature dropped. God continues to amaze us! Who would have ever thought that a tree falling on our roof would bring so many blessings! We have been so blessed- beginning with helpers that came to get the tree off of our roof the day it fell, then the roofer that talked the adjuster into giving us money to replace the whole backside of our roof, next the large check that we got in order to make the repairs, and lastly the men who came to fix the roof today! We don't always understand what God's plan is, but we know that He has one and it's even greater than we can ever imagine. When the tree fell on the house we would have never in a million years thought that we would be blessed by it! God turned a bad situation into a great one. We have an amazing God and some amazing friends!!
I bet the guys are all going to sleep well tonight-well maybe not the one who has an 8 week old at home! All I know is that it's 8:20pm right now and Jerm is sound asleep on the couch.....and he was the supervisor for the project!!!
