About time I got that done!

 I've had issues with the gutter on the front of my house.   It's been clogged.  I took the bottom part apart to see if there was anything I could do to fix it but couldn't find anything.   Today I had a guy come out to clean the gutters front and back and had him put gutter guards up.  He came did an awesome job and voila ... 

this is what he found in the upper elbow of the downspout clogging up the entire thing!  A toy that the dog from the previous owners used to play with which ended up on the roof 3 stories high.

So happy it wasn't a major issue except due to all the water that has been coming down like a giant waterfall these past two winters right onto my brick stairway I now have another problem to take care of ... masonry work isn't cheap.  I might just attempt to at least take things apart and see what the damage is underneath those loose bricks and figure out how to either fix it myself or have it done.

Ugghhhh ... owning a house there is always something that needs fix'n!
