I'm not even sure. As far as I know, she hasn't been up there to look. We cleaned it out pretty good a few years ago, so there's probably some accumulation, but we'd gone quite a few more years prior to that, so I don't know. It was mostly the stuff coming off of the shingles the last time.
She knows someone at work whose husband cleans gutters and builds fences, so she got the guy's number and now I'm supposed to call him. :)
re: son and family
We don't know. He's in the process of getting his master's in education, and he needs to do some student teaching for a term, and right now, he doesn't have anyone to do that with yet, so we're kind of on standby until he figures it out. Most likely, they'll be here through the end of the year, if he gets the student teaching position around here.
