Truck...

Would have been better if you could have done it at night, less the sun. We recently had a contractor installed a steel roof and there were 5 guys doing it. I can't imagine what you're going thru.

Well crap I gotta get back out there and get the one side I demoed by myself re-sheathed and covered up before the rain gets here or the stuff in my garage is really going to get wet.

I didn't make it....not even close... I was still pulling nails when the loud crash of thunder snuck up on me. Then it was a mad dash to get a giant tarp over the gaping holes in the roof of my garage where I got totally soaked in the process.

What a fun day.
