Black Top

I was hoping to hear from the art glass shop this past week regarding the stained glass window. Probably next week.

To my surprise, at 10:00 am on this Saturday morning, a crew of four showed up in an unmarked white panel van and told me they were going to apply roofing felt to the garage. They were fast, completing the job and gone by 11:30 am. No rain had fallen yet, so as long as we don't have any strong winds, it will probably stay in place and provide some protection to the garage roof plywood. Spenser and I toured the area after they had departed. There were roofing nails everywhere, including out in the alley. Spenser was so disgusted he refused to help me clear them out of the alley.







I found it interesting that yesterday, before they quit for the day, Mike put down felt on the sunroom 1x6 roof boards they had installed, but they did not cover the top row of boards. Therefore, not only will that row be rained/snowed upon, the rain will also get underneath the paper. Oh well, I am sure Mike knows what he is doing. He left a lot of select-grade pine board remnants all over the back yard. Most of these are not very long, but it is really nice wood (essentially knot-free). Spenser and I collected probably a total of 20 feet of these remnants and took them to the basement. We will find a use for them.
