BigV Goon Squad Leader Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Seattle Posts: 27,063	The roof was in bad shape when the windstorm finished it off. Here's a small section of what is now under all that roofing paper. As you can see, the previously exposed section of the three tab shingles is gone. Don't you just love the cute little staples holding down the back part of the shingle? Pic 01: A few remaining old crappy shingles. Pic 02: Wider view of papered roof, southern exposure, looking west. Attached Images __________________ Be Just and Fear Not.
