The roof is on, and now it's aftermath

The Dutchmen are off somewhere else, the world is at peace, I have to get to the bank and meet the contractor this evening and pay him.

The scrap aluminum is off to the scrapyard, the money earmarked to buy beer.

I also have to hook up the wiring on the power vent and take the extra shingles back.

I now sleep under a new roof, a roof for the ages.

And, oh, yeah. I have to clean out the attic.

You have to rememner the sheathing on the roof is the old style 1x8s and they shrunk and were gapped. A lot of grit and nails ans small pieces of stuff wiggled down into the attic and it has to be swept up.

My work is cut out for me.
