Up On the Housetop

No, it is not Santa with his reindeer, but a crew ripping off the east slope of our roof.  We had enough  damage from the winds in December that the insurance allowed for a full replacement on the damaged side.  They are taking off the two layers of shingles and we will be starting from bare wood.  It is raining shingles right outside the den window as I write!  It is very noisy and feels like they will come right down through the ceiling.  Good thing Santa and his crew are not this noisy!  Yikes.
