Matt working on the roof...(danger)


So here I am replacing some metal roofing, b/c the porch was just too leaky all the time.

Surprisingly, the work was completed without any injuries to myself.







Oh, but I did break a window. But not with any part of my self, so that's a bonus!

This is at the nearby Dorrigo National Park. It's a world heritage-listed rainforest, about 1 hour from us.

Jess the Enforcer.
She has taken to guarding the fortress (porch) by standing at the bottom of the stairs and squirting the approaching infidels (chickens) with a water bottle. Viscious child.

Jess shooting the chickens w/ water is the funniest thing ever. I'm glad you didn't hurt yourself while roofing. I guess practice in drift really helped out. We havn't had snow in soooo long and michigan is starting to look like australia. TTYL

Looks to me like a job for...
the shingler.

Getting psuper psyched for the mexico trip. It was bittersweet news to hear that the roof has already been fixed at agua viva. bitter because roofing rules, sweet because someone fixed it.

i miss you, man.
