Nine hours. Nine cold, snowy, cold, long hours.
That's how long it took me to repair a leak in the roof. The sad part was that I was planning on having it done in five hours…. sigh. 
The good news is that I learned how to repair a roof leak. 
Kind of.
The "roof leak" wasn't really a "leak" – well, technically, it was on the roof and it did leak – but it wasn't like a "real leak".
This "fake" leak was a portion of the roof that did not get shingled when the house was build. As such, it was really easy to find and decently easy to repair.
"Decently easy" is a nice way of saying that "I ripped out and replaced the plywood; tarred the heck out of the wood, metal, shingles and anything else in the way."
Now if only I can find the "real leak" by the skylight… the one with the shingles and stuff.
