New porch roof

 I got the old roof pulled off first thing this morning and moved out of the way. I will probably use some of the metal to add a cover to the back porch, and Heather wants some for the barn to cover the back door.
 First sheet is always the hardest. Since all the other pieces fit to this one, it must be exactly straight.
 Everything is moving right along. New roof is single piece to help eliminate any leakage. I just couldn't make the seam stop leaking.
 Lisa stopped by and helped. She anchored the front edge while I was getting the top part of the sheet.
Heather helped, too. I couldn't bend the edge over and fasten it like I wanted to, so she helped fold it over and hold it so I could get a few screws started. It looks very nice.
