We don't expect any precipitation from Friday Morning to Friday Overnight. The wind is strong the door blew open and the dogs took off. It's really blowing here in Rawdon. We have another roof to do today not a big one but it keeps us in beer money. Have to put my snowpants on and wear my hoodie under my snomo jacket it's cold out there this morning. With the wind chill from the NW it feels like -20°C. While I'm waiting for Louys to call we'll sing a few songs on blogTV let's go there now. I am currently broadcasting on blogTV.com - check out my show http://www.blogtv.com/Shows/20626

ok ok just to resume the after noon and evening .... Louys and I went to do a roof at Lookout Point at 13hr00 we finished 4 hours later. It was a big roof with ice at the perimitera nice galvanized steel roof but very slippery. The grade of the roof was about 140°and a little steeper than I was used to on a steel roof. A steel roof has the reputation for being more slippery than an asphalt roof. Unlike the asphalt roof we did at lake's end we had less grip and I fell more than once at Lookout Park.
