The Tremendous Roof

Josh: Today… Today was a new “high” day. Paul B. and I were on the tremendous roof. It was fun and sometimes scary. Very scary. Mostly the roof was somewhat enclosed because of multiple additions by groups just like us. But the 30 foot ladder was all open, all of it. So Paul and I were hanging network cable, for all the geeks reading this it’s CAT 5 cable. Anyway on the ladder parts I fed wire through the zip tie that Ritch and I hung 2 days ago. But the ladder was not the best. I would be perfectly fine if the 30 mph wind hadn’t started every time I tried going up. But it was fun lots of fun. So when I wasn’t on the ladder Paul and I were on the roofs running the wire. It wasn’t scary then but the ladder was not fun. By the way Paul does not always like heights, so sometimes he had to take some deep breaths before he would go up and down a lot but it worked out. Any way I don’t have any pictures because of well my mommy might be a little worried. I seriously can’t wait until tomorrow morning when we go on the mountain walk. The mountain walk is when our group are going up the mountain a couple miles away, with the big cross on top. I think it will be fun, and don’t worry I’ll bring the camera. Anyway if any of you are wondering how close we are to the border, every day and night we can easily see the lights of the border and can see downtown El Paso. Its really cool, but I can just think how all the children looking out at America and just wishing or thinking. Well I hope all is going well back in Amer-eeeee-kkka.

  1. Josh,
    Your mommy and I were just wondering tonight if you would post – very cool! Paul strong work with the height thing…I’d be doing the deep breaths right there with you! 🙂 (Especially in 30mph wind!) I was just thinking about that mountain this morning…does it say something about Jesus or the Bible on it? I guess I’ll just have to wait for the pictures.

    In His Hands,

  2. JCS: You know, its not the fall off the roof that kills you, its the sudden stop! Glad to hear you are enjoying being “up on the roof” – what I want to know is how come you are always up on our roof too? I mean there is no “CAT 5” wiring up there????? Seriously I am glad you posted – it was good to read your entry and see that you are hanging in there…I love you and miss you!
    Paul: I have two words for you….terra firma (the firma the better!) Hang in there!
