Managed to get mine up in dry conditions last weekend.
I jumped off my roof last year when gale-force chinook winds blew the ladder over (I thought I secured that thing). I now see the benefit of paying someone to do this. But I'm still too cheap (and stupid) to have someone else do it.

By the way - is it still too early to turn on your Christmas lights. Mine are already up, but I haven't turned them on yet. About half a dozen folks on my street already turn them on at night. Too early IMO. I'm waiting until next weekend when it's officially December.
