Well for 30 years I ran wild in the mountains and it shows at home !  A gold miner goes to work in the spring and does not come home until the water freezes in Oct !   So when you do get home the times up on trying to get things repaired.  If you do not do it, well it just does not get done !  Wait long enough you will grow old and die waiting !  To get this repaired before the winter hit us hard.  Glaza will have a place out of the weather for her car and for me a work shop out of the -40 below winter !!! Ber it’s coming !

I have worked on my own so long now !   Well ok not on my own.   I have JHE and he is a King in the work place.  Does all the big lifting for me. Together we get it done.

Wow with 8 old layers and all the old tar poured over every repair what a mess !  The nails were unreal !  Like hanging onto a porcupine and every now and then you get poked !   The weight of the old roofing alone.  It is the fire hazard it all is, tar burn good and when there is a mess like that it burns good.

Well it was nasty and a flat out 10 days every day !  I can see why there was no help on this job.  Every contractor in town is flat out and had no time to even look at it !  MinerMan put on the carpenter tool belt and went to work.  I had promised Glaza that her roof in the shop where here car is will not leak on her one more time.  It was bad and needed love. It went from this to this !
