This is a view in the dining room of the way the roof was added on over what had been a porch. The 2x6s were bolted onto the 2x6s extending from the house...these bolted on boards are not even touching the house...sort of hanging there sort of pretending to hold up the roof. Well, it didn't work, as this roof has done nothing but fill with water, leak, defy quick fixes until now! Well, one hopes that the new plan which will essentially rebuild this roof the way it should have been done will be successful. If not, then Luke will be able to say, "I told you so!" His solution is to tear off the roof and leave it off as a porch with just the eve overhang. No dining room in that scenario, so I said no thanks!
