My Time on the Roof (of my house)

Oh. My. God.  I was just on the roof to retrieve a tennis ball that was wedged into a crevice.  It was awesome!!! My dad got out a really long ladder and lifted me up onto the roof.  If you hadn't noticed, the roof is EXTREMELY dirty.  And slanted.  I had to crouch as I walked to keep myself from losing my balance.  The ball was REALLY stuck.  A piece of stucco chipped off as I freed the ball.  I tossed it to my dad, who was waiting on the ladder.  Then, I crawled back down to the top of the ladder.  My dad helped me plant my feet on the step closest to me.  I gently lowered myself down and we climbed down the ladder.  It was an experience I'll never forget!!!
