Raisin' The Roof







My mother was in desperate need of a new roof. Her roof has been leaking, and we have had so much rain here lately. Last Saturday, we, along with many friends and neighbors, showed up to tear the old roof off. I believe at one time I counted 23 people on the roof, all at one time. My mom has very good neighbors and friends. Before noon on Saturday we had the old roof off, brand new sheeting all over the entire roof, and it all dried in. Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday nights were spent putting the new roof on. And YAY! It is finished! How grateful we all are for good, loving, caring friends. A special thanks goes out to our friend Max who freely gave of his time in service to my mom.
