roof

the metal roof looks awesome. it was a little expensive, but it should last forever, and it looks great. actually, it wasn't as expensive as i was thinking it would be, but the labor was kinda steep for a day's work. the place to go if you're in the seattle area is Metal Roof Specialties in Tacoma. ask for Wayne. he helped me out a ton.
rough plumbing is in, but dry and today is the pre-glue inspection. hopefully i can get the place all glued up on saturday and tested. its time to move on to the siding, and in order to do that, we should get that big hole in the front yard filled up so we have a flat place to work.
garage door is on order, and should be installed in a couple of weeks. it will be nice to be pretty much closed in at that point. we still have a window on order and two to install, but after that, we should be pretty much dry inside
i'd take some pictures of the roof, but you cant see it from the street. you have to drive around the block and look at it from the road above. and even then, you can only get a peek.

Ken,

We put on a new roof almost 2 years ago now. I sort of wish we had gone with a metal roof instead of replacing the asphalt shingles. Some pictures of your new roof (so I can be envious) would be appreicated.
