My son and I put a new roof on the cottage last week. The lake side was pretty beat up and starting to leak, so it was past time. My younger son was planning to help as well, but had to opt out at the last minute due to obligations, so I hired a local laborer to help. We tore off the old roof, replaced some rotted roof boards, laid ice shield in all the critical areas and shingled with architectural shingles. We only did the lake side at this time because there is an addition planned for the street side that will change the roofline. Still have to cap the ridge, but I thought I'd wait and do it all at once. Something to look forward to later in the summer. :)
