Thank you, coffee had not kicked in yet this morning. I woke up at 5:30 to pee and could not get back to sleep so I just went into the gym early and I was still foggy when I finally got into the office.

I like the idea of a light grey colored gavalume to help with heat deflection.
Also - what sticks in my mind is a statement I heard on talk radio once about the few big investments we make in life. A roof being one of the few big ones. Sorta frames it in a particular light, huh?

Seriously consider having the hurricane strap retrofit done. I was quoted $1000 to do my house while the roof was off, which makes access much easier from what I understand. Worth it to have a contractor do it.
After the roof is done get a new windstorm mitigation and your insurance will drop.
