We have had torrential rain and wind storms <br />
for the last 2 weeks and several roof leaks<br />
have developed because of this excessive wind and rain.<br />
Hence the ladder in the dining room and outside.<br />
Russell cut a 3" by 18" narrow piece out of the ceiling <br />
so that the water wouldn't do any more damage<br />
and would easily drip into the big ice chest we<br />
had put below. Thank goodness we were home. </div>

Russell is up on a ladder figuring out where </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
the leak is originating. It's a clear dry day today</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so he's using a hose to spray on different parts</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of the roof while I stand in the dining room letting him</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
know when the water starts to drip inside.</div>
