Summer in Florida

As mentioned in my last post, the guys started work on the roof last weekend. Saturday brought good weather, but Sunday was a different story. The day started out fine, with the guys working on the roof and me taking some pictures of stuff around the house:

Back patio: doors installed!

Kitchen windows, from the outside

Outdoor shower on the back of the house

Northwest corner view: master bath windows

Ken painted the trim and siding on the dormer

A/C duct work installed!

We hung electrical boxes for switches and outlets

Then came the rain, from what seemed out of nowhere:

 It was enough to halt the boys in their work


...and cause a mud flood in the back!

The water really pooled up in the front yard, and nearly covered the roof tin under water:


The boys waited for it to pass...

But it didn't seem to be letting up anytime soon.

 Typical Florida during the summer!

At least we now know the areas that need to be leveled out, and the parts that need more dirt added 





It rained for about 45 minutes, so we called it a day. We ended up cleaning up around the lot then enjoyed the rest of the day at home!
