Side Job / Labor of Love


One of the many diversions to the yak is the Keleny cabin roof. She be needing some attention for quite some time. The multiple layers covering the multiple layers that get damaged each year as people chop the ice that forms as ice dams, badly needed to be replaced. A new steel roof should do just the trick.

Nobody knows how old the old log cabin is but it was a loggers cabin many moons ago. We did find a set of instructions on how to flash a chimney that might have had a 1932 date code. We pulled off 4 layers of tar paper and rolled roofing and one layer of shingles.
