To make this story complete, I have to start at the beginning. We have loved the look of this Ivory Home not too far from our house since before we even thought of building our own home. We love the color of stucco, we love the stone work and we love the shingle color. We have driven by this house about 10 times and taken walks by the house to memorize it's features. Well we got to the point where needed to pick out a shingle color for our home and we were trying to match the color to this house we liked. But after going to the Roofers Supply store 2 times, we hadn't come up with the right color. So Ryan decided to talk to the people that live in this house. Of course it happens to be an older gentleman who speaks with an accent and keeps thinking that Ryan wants to buy and Ivory Home and doesn't give us much information. While Ryan is distracting the gentleman, he motions for me to take pictures with my cell phone. So while his back is turned, I'm taking pictures.
Well when we get home the pictures look terrible, so he sends me back to the house with the regular camera and the video camera. So I stake out in front of this house one more time. Of course the people that live there open the garage, so I jump back into my van, drive through the neighborhood until they are gone, and then start taking pictures again. Don't be surprised if these people get a restraining order out against us. But the good news is that we were able to take the pictures to the Roofers Supply store and we have ordered our shingles!!!! The color is Natural Timber. Anyway they were delivered today so they should finish our roof this week. Yeah!!
