I am passing the baton to my dear husband.

First attempt at removing sod on roof.

Nice and fertile soil with clematis vines

The project looks overwhelming.

Beginning to see some daylight

Working on not getting it in my mouth and up my nose.

Lynn get my back side. Standing on the ladder all day is tough

The is the last few feet of the sod and it was growing up the valley of the roof on the house.

This is what I managed to get done this weekend.

Final photo of the porch. Getting there.

This is the last picture of the day

Well my goal for today was accomplished.  I got all the sod off the roof and many of the boards.  It is ready to have the roof rafters and ceiling rafters taken down.  That is Lynn’s part of the project and he has this week to get it done.  As next weekend we will be removing  floorboards and seeing whether we will be using the joist that are there or whether we will be replacing those also.  Got the feeling, they will be replaced.

We are also planning on pouring the cement posts.  If we get that far next weekend, I will be a happy girl.

I had planned to wait until the project is done before showing you pictures, but I just can’t wait that long.  So I will be posting a few of the ones as we progressed to how it looks today.  Really had no way to go but up.

Annie, the demo queen.
