I've quit playing golf for a while I wasn't having fun playing towards the end of last year. I've also come to the realization that I'm a better shot with a rifle or pistol than I am with golf club.

I've always played golf because my dad said it was something I had to do. I had fun playing it but I never really enjoyed it like I do shooting and with my divorce last year, turning 40 in two years, I also decided it was time for me to start doing things in life that I truly enjoy and explore new things to do.

I agree with that! We have a reroof to do at Heather's yet this summer and I'm asking my self why I didn't do it earlier than July or August.

Oh well it's only a 5 square roof so it won't take to long to do.

Nah..... gonna use architectural shingles so it should only take about 15 minutes.

I have to take the siding off and reflash were the truss and upstairs exterior wall meet because there is a leak and also figure out how to to vent it to eliminate a huge ice dam that forms in the winter. And depending what I find there maybe a total reframe of the roof since the peak is sway backed about 12-16 inches in the center over 22ft.

This project should be a real treat.......
