Luther and Nick here before 7; Tom at 8.  First of our regularly scheduled (sic) $300 Goodro’s deliveries here just after 7, bringing more 2x10’s and the 2x6’s needed for the sub-fascia.  Tom had figured out what was wrong with the south-side rafters: he’d inched himself on every seat cut.  That meant that all those rafters had to be taken down, re-cut, and put back up.  By the end of the day that had been done, plus the east and north side rafters were in place… and in plane.  My job for the day was to attach hurricane ties to the hip rafters and any of the common and jack rafters that had been goose certified as being properly installed.  Ran out of 2x10’s again mid-afternoon.  Swear the space aliens are somehow spiriting that lumber away.  But Goodro’s to the rescue, delivering another supply soon after the guys were gone.
