IMG_1580 Question is how many compressors does it take to nail down a roof? The green one, Craig's new quiet compressor decided to not work for him. The 2 red ones were borrowed from Tom Lindeman also would not work for Craig. The little blue one from Craig's house was not strong enough to operate the nail gun. Missing compressor is the one he borrowed from Tom at Hilltop. Tom's compressor never made it out of Craig's SUV as while he was picking it up, Troy got the original green one going by pressing the reset button that Craig had never used. Troy had to admit to Craig that he also had spent a few hours of lost work trying to get the green one operating this winter until he read the manual where he found out about the reset button. Thankfully neither of them took the green compressor up to John at Minocqua Hardware, who would have laughed at both of them when he pushed the reset button and sent them home with the bill IMG_1561 Back to work on side 2 of Birchwood. Coming in the driveway now all the new roofs look done from Bayview on down. Just don't look at the porch roofs or the other side (Shamrock only has one side roofed and is missing the porch) Our old roofs with the red roofing are still doing fine but it is nice to see the new roofs cropping up IMG_1581 The signs of Craig being around blue plastic in the trees and thrown off roofs. Happily nobody is around to appreciate his mess and noise. He has til May 12th to get it done when the first spring guests arrive for Birchwood IMG_1562 Newly upholstered furniture back for Wildflower. Cushions should be much more comfortable than before IMG_1559 Raft got painted along with all ladders for the white dock and raft.
