"Blink" The Weather Changed

What do you get when you add 1200 sq feet of roof shingles (36 bundles or 12 squares), plus 5 rolls of 30lb roofing felt, plus 3.5 rolls of water and ice protection, plus numerous pieces of step flashing, and add 6400 roofing nails with a whole lot of labor.
What do you get?
Answer - a roof.

Mother nature did not make this roofing project easy. Throughout Connecticut, roofs have been a issue this winter and attempting to install a new roof with the mountains of snow we received, and shoveled off the roof, and the bitter cold that turns a pliable roof shingle into something brittle like glass, has been a major challenge.

A week or so ago, it was difficult to feel your fingers or toes because of the bitter cold. Yesterday Earl Logsdon, from "Logsdon Contracting" was up on the roof in a tee shirt working up a sweat.
New England weather, "Blink and it changes".

With all the roofing complete, This is the first time in a very long time that the outside weather is not a issue and will not keep me awake at night.

So glad the roof is done and that Heavenly Father gave you good weather for a change... Winter is not done here! Love you, Mom
