Personal Tragedy......Kind Of!

We have a rubber membrane on the raised roof on the back of our house.....every winter the snow that gathers on the roof melts and slides off to the ground in huge chunks! Well.......this winter we had a good 12 inches still on the roof and it had frozen solid and has been falling in chunks some that weigh I would guess over 150 pounds! Last night the majority of the remainder of the snow fell and there were 2 huge crashes while we slept (they woke us as they were very loud as they crashed to the ground) I got up this am after the second crash and looked out back and the 1st crash had taken out my outdoor shower stall!!!! So I guess I will just have to build a nicer one! Blessing is I was going to have to dismantle it anyway so I can reside the house so......not that big a deal I guess? $100 worth of stockade fence and my time. The block that took it out fell perfectly inside the stall and blew the walls out!!! The piece must weigh a good 300 pounds....I am just hoping the deck is reuseable.

Almost time to get our fish on!!!
