The day before we left for Christmas holiday, we had a 60ft water oak that was draped over our house cut down.
It finally opened up a section next to our house for a small garden and walking path into the back yard.
Today, was all about getting the area cleaned up so we could figure out how to design the space.
Said tree trunk with 634 SRs:
All photos before:
I’ll snap some cleaned up photos once we finish tomorrow morning [emoji482]

Shame to loose the tree, but it looks like there are plenty of others in the area, plus I can see how it is going to open up the space…
Hiring a stump grinder ?

Yeah, while we didn’t want to cut it down, it was around 40 years old and already dying. It would have either fallen in a controlled manner by us, or on top of our roof haha
Not sure what we are going to do with it. We kind of want to do something neat with it as the root structure is insane.
Definitely was able to get the space cleared:
Don’t mind the creepy abandoned house next door. Hoping he will just sell it to me for cheap If I keep cleaning his yard lol [emoji23]

This has been the snowiest February on record here in Minnesnowta, with more on the way tonight. This has led to us discovering that we need a bit more attic insulation. Damn ice dams! Raking the roof in an attempt at damage limitation today.
-
Ooh shit. How many inches thick is the layer you have now? @nurunuru
For the snow, I'd guess maybe a foot to a foot-and-a-half? We've had over 30" fall so far just this month.
With regards to the damn ice dam… it looks to be a good six+ inches high in spots ??? No signs of any leakage inside the house yet, though. Fingers are very much crossed on that one!

Sorry I wasn't clear, I meant how thick is the layer of insulation? I was discussing roof construction in the USA vs. Norway with @steelworker a while back. Insulation to stop heat loss will help with the icing but the best solution is to have an effective "cold air" layer between the top (outward) layer of roofing and an under-roof. The building regs in Norway specify a 2" minimum. You can clearly see which houses have it and which don't around my way… Ed seemed to think that was unusual in the States.
