    I don't like high places but I will tend to the ground work with you. Bet you'll be done before I can get out there.... :(

    Good job koszta kid! I have done roofing myself & know it is a hard job. We used foam rubber pillows--the kind you get from old couches (minus the upholstery). Best way to cling to the steep slope.

    I'm scared of heights! No amount of beer or well-made food will get me on top of a roof... :( Good luck to you, it's going to look good once it's done.

    One steep part when younger,and had to tear off tied off on chimney-or to other truck on other side of house. But Sis and Bil 20 years younger.They are bringing whole family+ us 3 here. He Flips houses during summer. Teaches at local college. And learned the HARD way not to sit on behind when shingling. You can Burn easy. :D
