    I’ll be done before your here. If it takes me 17 hours to do this I need to just crawl into a corner and die.

    It’s ground height application which means crawling around

    No. It's a play on one of my favorite fishing flies, the Grey Ghost (invented right here in Maine). But my truck is Silver, not Grey. I'm torn. LOL

    Gray Ghost. Never forget that car and the fuckin asshole that owned it. Think I told you about that.
    Glad it’s not Gray..

    Worked all week on repairing this 17yr old shed. Tree limb fell on it during those ice storms eariler in the year. I have great customers as they waited all this time for me to do it.

    Cleaned the moss off the north side of the roof (used 30% cleaning vinager as they have dogs). Applied it last Friday, let it do it's thing for a few dry days. Worked great.
    Jacked up front right corner of the shed as the doors were way out of alignment and only one would open
    Damage was both structural and superficial - replaced 2 rafter tails, sheathing, fascia, soffit, etc. (both front and back)
    Replaced the aluminum fascia wrap, drip edge and roof shingles (where needed)
    Gave the whole shed a cleaning before leaving yesterday

    Customer was beyond thrilled.

    Hey Stockers. Droppin' in to catch up a bit. Off work for a family wedding and Family reunion (two different events, two different states, same core group of folks).

    Zero cell service where the wedding was, Central Vermont. Could only interact with the world when near a router...so I didn't. It was glorious. Now I'm at my brothers in NH, watching the Osprey pull bass from the pond, and catching up on work emails. #%^&!@#!! grrrrr.
