A Pie for Roger

Our neighbor Roger is a master woodworker, and he agreed earlier this summer to finish building a roof over our community mailbox stand outside my front yard gate.  It's been just a simple 4x4 with two 2x4's as the base for the mailboxes for the 13 years we have lived here.

He and his son built a beautiful roof and cross-beams out of cedar, with Desert Tan composition shingles on the roof.  It's a beautiful sight, and helps keep our mail dry in this rainy season.

We baked Roger and his family a Caramel Apple pie topped with apple pie-flavored almonds from Bob's Corn Country Store as a thank you.
