Morning Pat, Andy and those to follow.
Weather guessers are saying clouds and staying under 60° and that is fine by me with the work I have today.

Good morning Oregon and everyone everywhere else. 52.5, dry and overcast. Fortune tellers are saying it is going to be cloudy all day and only get to 62.

Survived even with a few tourist trying to take me out.
Still don't understand why people in little cars think they will win when the pull out in front of a box truck ( empty 12,000lbs Loaded 18,000lbs).

Good evening Oregon and everyone everywhere else. Still didn't quite get everything done today. Still have to make a trip to Newberg Steel and Fab tomorrow, and then pickup #1 sons birthday cake and his daughter. It would appear that Devils Lake boating and birthday party is on for Saturday.

Good morning Andy and the Oregon crew, welcome to Thirsty Thursday! Roofers should be done with our house today, thankfully.

We're having the wood shakes removed, and putting on class 4 impact resistant asphalt shingles. Since our covenant only allows one kind of asphalt shingles ( of course, the most expensive ones they sell), we didn't have a lot of choice. I won't miss the wood shakes, I was always finding bits and pieces of them in the yard.

The old wood shakes are great kindling.

Like everything anymore roofs are pricey. I had to do our after a windstorm about 15 years back, went with the locking metal roof system and it's been great.
