Rain Out

We woke up this morning to a little rain, thunder and lightning. By daybreak, the thunder and lightning had moved on and a light rain prevailed. Forecast is for rain to continue throughout the day with more thunderstorms possible this evening. By daybreak Wednesday morning however, the rain is supposed to be gone and the sun should reappear. High tomorrow in the 70's. Only a slight chance of rain for the remainder of the week with the highs in the low 50's.

Got a call from Bret (roofing) while I was on the road this morning. He left a message asking me to look around for any roof leaks and to let him know. He said they were still waiting for materials. On this day last week, he told me that the materials might be in toward the end of that week, but no later than Monday (yesterday). When I got home I toured the attic and found no obvious significant leaks even though I could see daylight through one of the roof hips. I tried to call Bret (really only to ask about the latest estimate on when they would return), but as usual, I got the recording that his voice mail inbox was full and to call his office. I did not call their office, but shortly after noon, Bret called again. I told him that I found no apparent leaks, but could see daylight through one of the ridge hips. He said the roofers would be out tomorrow (Wednesday) to complete the main house and then back on Thursday with the needed materials to do the sunroom and finish the garage.

Frank (HAC) forwarded to us a copy of the extension of the mechanical permit from the City today. The original permit would have expired on April 20. It is now extended to October 27.

I did take the first opportunity we have had to park Kermit in the new garage.
