Roofing in December....who would have thought it would be perfect roofing weather...55 and no wind!

Took a quick pic at about 4:15 racing to get done before dark. Didn't make it. The cap shingles need to go on yet and the cupola needs a lot of work along with flashing around it's base.

Very true CN...if the forecast predicts lower temps than 55* all us civic minded, thin blood MD'ers fire up a second or third coal stove and open our doors and windows to get rid of the chill for our collective comfort!

Only problem is this particular roof is in NJ and they are less generous with their BTU's over there! :D

Congratulations. How does it feel now that you have dishonored the family motto?

Looks like you were sitting on an ATV rather than a horse. Perhaps I haven't been giving you enough credit.
