Dad worked on creating this lead flashing so that water doesn't run down the logs and get underneath the shingles. There's still some counter flashing that gets cut in above this lead.
We started to see shingles go up on the main roof.
Lots of metal flashing going up too. Roy got those shingles cut perfectly.
Roy was eager to get going on the shingles, but we were still running behind, so we used up all available daylight hours - and then some. We had to get the cedar fascia boards all up before he could start on the shingles. He worked himself out of a job quite a few days and then we'd hurry and try to get another section ready for him to work on. 
In this picture, you can see the fascia up on the left dormer, but not on the right dormer yet. And Roy worked up the center as far as he could before starting on the dormers.
You can see in this picture the insulation still going up on the back side of the house while they worked on roofing the front side.
Dad & I worked our behinds off trying to get ahead of the other guys so that we could be ready for sheeting by the time Roy made his way around the back of the house. In this picture Dad's cutting the insulation to width to fit in between the stringers.
The early morning sun shining on the house~makes you see just how green that roof is.
Before we got finished with the front side of the house, the rains came back. We thought we'd been done with the tarps, but we had to drag them back out again to protect the peak of the roof and the entire back side of the house which was still completed unprotected.
