Roofing Day 2

I ended up taking the front corner of the roof apart to get the hip ready for tar paper and shingles, including some ice and water shield, which I actually think I installed wrong after talking to my roofer neighbor.

 Mom and Dad showed up around 12 and Dad helped me out with cutting some plywood and getting stuff I needed in the garage while Mom watched Sam after he got dropped off by the sitter while they were out doing errands. Anywho... here are some pictures of the progress for Day 2, not feeling like doing the full description narrative, so you will have to follow along with the captions on the photos; sorry they are a little out of order.

Started by moving the drip edge up onto the roof

Then started pulling back the tar paper from the East side.

Started tearing off the corner of the North roof

So I got all but the very last row under the gable done on the East roof and have tar paper rolled out over the north roof, ready to start the east corner in the morning.

I will have to remove more roofing and sheeting to do any more than just a couple rows, but it will be a start.
