The lake temperature is a balmy 78° F and the lake level is 1½″ below the top of the dock.  Put on another 17 square feet of west wall shingles today, every one of which had to be cut to length and, often, to the width needed for a particular spot.  Only one more course to go!!!!  That equals 9.6 square feet… or approximately 55 shingles of various widths.  The good news: there are somewhat more than 100 usable shingles left.  The bad news: at least half of those shingles are between 3¾″ and 4¼″ in width… not a size that is used a lot.  Stay tuned for the exciting finish!
