We knew the shingles were in bad shape when we purchased our house last year. Kathy and I both like the look of metal roofs. A contractor from church recommended a roofing company to us. This morning we drove to Versailles, MO, about 35 miles, visited the company, picked out what we wanted and got a ballpark price from them. Their installed price was about what I expected just the material to cost. We told them to go ahead. They are supposed to come out this week to take measurements and firm up the price. At most they have two days labor for a crew to do the work. It will take them a couple of weeks to get the steel and roll it. They are also going to install gutters and downspouts, front and back, with leaf guards.
We had a nice lunch at a Mom & Pop type restaurant in Versailles. On our way home we stopped off at the Amish grocery store, since we were driving right by it. We didn't buy a lot, but it is interesting to see what they have at the store.
The weather people had forecast rain every day since last Saturday. So far we have received less than a quarter inch. And these bozos want me to believe that they know that man causes global warming, BALONEY!
It was WARM here today. The official high was 78, and it felt that hot. Last nights low was 61and tonights low is supposed to be the same. Thursday nights low is forecast to be 33 so there is some cool weather to be had before summer hits.
I hope you all had a great day. May God bless you and yours.
