Higham's New Roof


It was time to redo Jennifer's parents roof. The original shingles had been on the roof for close to 30 years. I made this shirt especially for the job.


  We wanted to make sure that we got it done before the start of football season. The weather was overcast most of the day and did not rain. Great weather for shingling a roof. We started at 8 am and were finished around 7 pm.  I enjoyed about 8 of those 11 hours.


 We were so glad to be finished. Ernie and I were the only two working on the roof and could have used some help. I used the nail gun to put in over 5,500 nails and being on a slope that long made for some sore muscles. When we were done, it looked great and Tammie was very pleased.
