Week of November 2...

We worked on shingles this entire week. What a job! Both of us were happy to have it finished! Neither one of us got majorly hurt in the process. Hopefully this was our last attempt at being roofers! Here is the finished product at the end of the week.

Week of October 26th...

Trent came down to help us finish putting the roof on. What a wonderful friend! Before the roof went on, it rained everyday for 3 weeks. The floor inside was soaking wet and I was worried that we might have to replace some of it. But, it dried out quickly after it was protected from the weather. And, of course, the rain stopped as soon as the roof was on!

Also, this week was campmeeting. It was very hard to enjoy ourselves this year. We didn't spend much time at the campground. We would go to eat and that is about it. We didn't "promenade" around the tents or visit with anybody. I didn't take the first picture this year! This was also a hard time because Ms. LaVerne, Russ' Grandma, broke her leg and was stuck in bed. No campmeeting for her... it just wasn't the same without her!
