Day 10 (Thu) - Rain and rafters

Today started off early for us, didn't get much sleep after the rain issues last night. Awoke for the third time at 5:30am to the sound of rain. Immediately we jumped out of bed and went back to the roof. This time the tarps held back about 90% of the water and Jeff and I were about to keep up with the other 10% ourselves.

The construction crew showed up about 8am and they helped until the rain finally cleared late morning. The general contractor also brought out a fire/flood company to assess the situation. They are putting industrial fans in several places and huge dehumidifers in the basement and bedroom and living room.


Meanwhile the carpenters have started on the roof rafters and we are hoping they get a lot of them up so tonights tarping will go a little better. It has a 20% chance of rain tonight and we really need some sleep.
