Hull family paints roof with white shingles spelling HULL
A year ago the Hulls on Rantoul RFD faced blue shingle shortages and added a white shingles wordmark on their roof. Robert Hull then 16 formed the large HULL on the right side with help from Stephen 7 Susie 12 and older siblings. The project required an afternoon of measuring and cutting. The family enjoys the unique feature, with neighbors amused by the novelty and one person joking about an airport. They would repeat the idea if given the chance.
