Hey everyone well it was a long hot weekend to say the least. It's already 98 to 100 degrees here and guess what were doing? You guessed it roofing!! It's been a little slow but we been taking off about 10:30 a.m. or so and stopping until about 5:30 p.m. At least that way the sun isn't beating down on you! Man that is just unbearable on the roof!! Anyway I have a few pics to share so I'll get right at it.
This first pc is of me trying to show you all the 2 foot outriggers we put on to extend the front and back of the cabin out as far as the sides of the roof so we could put on our fascia boards.
Next we have my Dad putting on some 1x6 fascia board on the left side of the roof.
In this picture you can see me putting on some primer on the fascia board before we put the drip railing on the edge of it. We also wanted to get some kind of protection on the fascia boards in case it started to rain. As you can see here the left side up to 24 foot is ready to shingle. The felt is down and the drip rail is on. Eventually we want to put on colored aluminum fascia to match the drip rail which is a chocolate brown color.
On this last picture you can see we got our OSB on this side 24 foot as well but we ran out of time and daylight! We worked that night till about 8:15 and I still had a 98 mile ride home yet! We got a good ways though. Stay tuned for next week we hope to have some of the roof shingled and in the dry.

The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!
