Roof Update

The roof is progressing along.  They've removed all the tiles and paper, they've put down the new paper and "dryed it in", and they've completed the wood repairs.  Apparently we had some termite damage in one area of the house.  We didn't realize there was damage, but we knew we had termites and tented about 2 years ago.  So now the wood has been replaced and the job boss said that there was no live termites (that's a relief).  After the wood the "mopped it in" with the tar (Thursday), so if all goes well, they should start with laying the tile sometime next week.

This roofing stuff is a whole other world with how it's done, and inspections needed, and the permitting.  I've been true to my normal inquisitive self and asking questions along the way, so I now can at least have a semi intelligent conversation when the roofing company calls to tell us something.

My cat's are freaked out with all the banging, and weird tar smells, so both they and I can't wait until it's all over.  Mother nature has really been behaving as we've had no rain (ok ... maybe a few light showers, but nothing major).  I'm just glad it's been moving along pretty quickly.
