About us: Anna Hess and Mark Hamilton spent over a decade living self-sufficiently in the mountains of Virginia before moving north to start over from scratch in the foothills of Ohio. They've experimented with permaculture, no-till gardening, trailersteading, home-based microbusinesses and much more, writing about their adventures in both blogs and books.

Mark didn't mention that the purpose of this job was to get the gutter level so the water will flow out correctly. After taking all of the screws loose but one, pushing the downspout end about six inches lower, and putting the screws back, water finally flowed in the right direction. Yes, that does mean that this part of the roof is far from level, but, hey, it works!
What I love most about this blog is that you appear to be the happiest person in the world. I love how your whole face is smiling in almost every picture, even when you are sprawled out on the roof.
I know that you are doing the things that make you the most pleased and satisfied, and that is a joy to watch and read about!
