New Roof, Days 2 & 3

After two warm, dare I say hot, days, the front section of the roof is coming along nicely. On Day 1, they got most of the front torn off, a much faster process than putting the new roof on. The new panels are about 4x2 feet each. They are all crimped to all other adjacent panels. It's sloow going. Since the front has gables, valleys, breaks, and a chimney, there's a lot o' cuttin' and pastin'.
Here's the progress so far:

And the ever growing pile o' scrap metal. 6 months ago it might have been worth something. . .

Speaking of things with no worth, here's DH's pet project. Eventually, this is supposed to be re-created as a dock at the lake. Too bad the pontoons have holes in them. . . .

And it looks so loverly sitting in the front yard. Really gives the neighborhood some class, ya know?

Tomorrow is the Eagle Scout Ceremony, and the next day is packing day #1. Yahoo!
