the roof

The roof part is one of my favorites. The neighbour that helped me with the concrete belt was charging me too much for the roof and I looked for other team. Luckily, a woman from the neighbourhood directed me to an old man, but very qualified who built her roof.
In the late summer I talked with him, but was already involved in a job, so I looked for other team. In the begining of october I asked him again and this time was "open" to my roof.
He was 71 years old and he was making team with his son. They've charged me just with half of my neighbour's offer. I didn't expect to make big job, because the old man looked quite incapable to carry heavy stuff. Surprisingly, they were moving faster than expected, and after 3 days they've already finished half of the roof.
I remember that in a friday at the sunset they were on the roof and I was collecting wood pieces from the yard and the wood smell was so strong and beatiful... As the sun was getting closer to the horizon, its beams were falling on the roof... I think it was the first moment when I liked this stuff, of building a house.
Anyway, in about 10 days they've finished the roof. I could finally sleep well. The thing with the roof was very important because the rain was affecting the ground floor. Moreover, if I couldn't do the roof till winter, the snow that would fall on the concrete floor that was over the ground floor, could frozen and crash.
