Ya...I am not a fan of summer time prime time.
But that's all about to end. This weekend I'm taking the fans down and putting the blanket back on the bed.
we had a light frost on the grass this morning.
We have two "cold" fronts coming
through with rain but first one the rain didn't fall on us. We just got down to 80 in past few minutes. Low 80s thru Sunday; 60's night. Last year, on this day, we had another record high 107.
I finished the stick down edges emergency tarp on part of deck over garage at 0400. Anxious to see if it will work. Rain, rain come my way.
The deck/roof was built wrong in the first place. First time I had it torn up we discovered they had originally done the drop off edge so that water poured down into the wall!!! "They" have never been able to get the pitch so that water freely runs off. I rebuilt part of the interior wall but on one end there are still some rotted studs. Over the years I've had deck/roof completely rebuilt twice and every couple of years I have to do major leak patching. After I put the new doors in it took me a couple of years to stop the leaking coming in under the doors. So far that's holding. When we bought the house previous owners said they had thought about enclosing the deck. I didn't know then why but certainly do now.
I have a liquid "rubbey" compound to apply to whole surface but haven't gotten around to doing it. It doesn't require heat setting so I'm not sure if it is really going to work.
Previous patching.
"Disaster" Tarp. Sticky edges, UV treated, supposed to stick on composite. We'll see....... Not finished pressing down sticky edges yet in picture.
