Shingles? Yes, please!

Earlier in the week, J's dad asked "Can you help me re-shingle the roof of the shed?". So Thursday was supposed to be a nice day outside and we had nothing much planned. Bright and early, the boys started taking off the old shingles from the roof of the shed.



Then, slowly, they started putting the new shingles back on.



J is now trained to re-roof our house when the time comes. Ok, maybe he'll need a bit of help....so he'll call his dad ;)

Re-roofing the shed took most of the day, so I took the opportunity to relax, nap, eat, walk, and take some pictures. Here is a close up of the peas (my favourite part of this picture is the little spiral vines):


Here is a close up of a sunflower:



Then I took a little walk down to the shore to take pictures of the eroded rock sculptures:


And finally, a picture we can someday enlarge to remind of us where J is from:






It was a nice relaxing day for me....and a day of hard-labour for J. If you ask him, he'll still say it felt like vacation. Anything is better than sitting at a desk all day!
