Cathie and I finally arranged cabin reroofing "at the last moment" before we ran into insurance problems. The insurer insisted on a new roof due to a hailstorm last fall, OK, but it was snowy up there until well into May, and then it was hard to get the roofing company going. Funny thing is, we'd already decided over the winter that it was time to replace the 30-year-old roof anyway!

We were assured shingles were delivered on a Tuesday, so we drove up for a couple of nights. No shingles. They arrived the next day less than two hours before the roofing crew!
