Nails

January 9 Nails

In December 1985, we moved into this house after it was built. The roof has lasted until now but the time came for me to replace it as the water was running off the roof between the eavestrough and the roof causing a great deal of ice build up on the path. I was very concerned about folks slipping on this and falling.

So, today is the day!

I got some snaps of the fellows up on the roof but this clump of nails really drew me to them. They are sitting out on the driveway on top of a pile of shingles. I expect that they are for a power hammer as they are all joined together.

It sure will be lovely to have the peace of mind now knowing that my roof won't leak and there won't be ice from water running from the roof onto the path.

So all are welcome now to come and visit! :)

The Wee Chapel with the Crooked Cross

Between Niagara Falls and the quaint town of Niagara-on-the-Lake is a wee chapel that is always open to the public, even in the winter. There is room only for 2 or 3 persons to be inside and that would be crowded! Usually hymn music is playing and there is free literature and a guest book for all to sign and it's lovely to see where folks came from who signed the book. The cross on the top is crooked and I wonder if whoever looks after this little building will straighten it.

One is Broken!

January 3 One egg broke but they still tasted fine! Everyone enjoyed them!
