Installation of new roof begins today

While getting dressed this morning I heard some loud thumping outside. I said to myself "Gee, those garbage men are loud." But as the thumping persisted, it occurred to me as I was tying my shoes: the roofing company is delivering the new roofing materials. Five minutes after I confirmed that assumption, the roofing salesman called saying they were to deliver the new shingles, vents, and turbines. I told him the delivery had already been made.

They'll start work today believing that the rain will abate for the rest of the day.
