Snow Removal

How do you remove heavy snow from the rooftop?  There are lots of solutions, but we heard of one suggestion that might work for us.  Fill the panty hose with rock salt (the same kind used for snow and ice) and lay it on the roof.  Oh, a bright idea indeed!

So, we went to Target for a few things including one white control-top panty hose.  I felt pretty silly since I haven't bought one of those in ages.  We opted for that color since we didn't want our "science project" to look very obvious from the boardwalk--it would blend with the snow.  Aren't we clever?!  I had to laugh pretty hard watching Tom fill each leg with rock salt. :)  Without further ado, it was laid out on our flat-top roof.  Well, we had to improvise....and hope that it works.  Stay tuned for a follow-up photo tomorrow.
