Out my desk window is a pergola, the roof of which I recently replaced with new polycarbonate panels. Previously, there’d been holes all over the roof that leaked rain. Now, it’s dry as a bone and that’s pleasing. To complete job, I installed gutters so that the rain run-off doesn’t spill off the roof and splatter back into the pergola space. Tonight, I took out the trash to hear the pitter patter pitter patter of the rain, the sound of the water streaming into the gutter, and the slosh of the water running from the downspout to the ground. Extremely pleasing.
