Nice, hopefully you don't have a new home being built right now without a roof.  Sleep well tonight.

IRWD sent me an email yesterday titled "Go Drought Friendly in 2016" then inside it says "Drought Watch" in stencil like it's official Army business.

I wonder how long they can keep up this charade.
 
Just noticed my 2nd story gutters are clogged.... great another project. 

How do you get to 20 foot high gutters without getting on the roof?

I saw somewhere that it can rain constantly for weeks and we would still be considered in a drought.

Went to the Hoover Dam earlier this year, you could probably remove the dam  the water is so low.

Put that drone to a good use ...
 
I jokingly put gutter bot into google.

iRobot already has it.  A Roomba for the gutter.

Looks interesting, but even if I can find a way for this to extend to the second story gutter, and I'm strong enough to wield a 20 ft pole with water coming out the other end:

It probably won't budge the pine needles I got wedged in the gutter like a birds nest.  I hate pine needles!

Saw that, but getting the robot up there is an issue and I don't think my gutters are wide enough.
 
Looks like my only choice besides hiring some amigos to go on the roof.  I hate ladders as much as I hate pine needles. 

So I'm thinking using the little giant ladder, hopefully in A frame along with my shop vac rain gutter extension.  Probably need to pick up another extension to get up there.  Not looking forward to this.
