Wind blown
The wind has been crazy lately! Twice last week we had winds in excess of 70 miles per hour complete with rain and hail. Yesterday, it didn't rain but man was it windy! I was standing in the kitchen and all of a sudden part of the roof flew off and hit the window right next to me. It ended up being the cap from the ridge vent on the very top of the roof. Dave said we had two choices, get up there and nail it on or at the very least, get up there and tarp it in case it started to rain. Of course supper is ready to be put on the table and I'm standing there trying to make this decision. Well let's get up there I said. So Dave got the ladder and he, Zach and I climbed up there to the peak of the roof. Of course, the neighbors are standing out watching us because I had asked for Aaron's help since this stuff makes me nervous. Thanks Aaron! It's hard to describe the feeling of standing on a roof in gail force winds. We got finished in record time and Trey and Lexi's only complaint was when I turned off the movie I had rushed to start to keep them occupied.
