Roof update

I snapped a picture of part of the old roof this morning when I got back from my walk. This shows a pretty good example of the rust on it.  The house was built in 1982, so that makes the roof 35 years old.  Some folks say metal roofs last a lifetime and maybe this one would (with needed repairs), but it would likely turn out to be the kind of roof you see while driving along the highway when you spot an old barn with a completely rust colored roof in the distance! :-)


Hubby got a few pictures of the house with the old metal roof off.  This shows the wood that was underneath it, and if you were able to get above the house and look down, you'd see the old gray loose insulation that is on the attic floor and the huge heating/AC unit.
