Awake: 7:32am       Temp 09      sleep 7+02     sunny to overcast     overnight @ Nicktown.

We skipped the KK meeting & motored to Barnesboro & the X-Treme fitness facility; paid our fee for (1) month & slowly began getting in shape again. Around 11:58am, we returned to Nicktown. Entering our circular drive, we could see the 84-Lumber truck parked close to our house. DSC000394.JPG                         I don't know how many bundles of insulation they had .... DSC000395.JPG but later, another truck, the same size, pulled in also loaded with insulation, probably transporting the Batts. I've learned that Batts are made to fit between the studs in the walls or between the joists of ceilings. DSC000396.JPG And these Batts are usually made of fiber glass or rock wool Fiber glass which is manufactured from sand and recycled glass; the rock wool is made from basaltic rock and recycled material from steel mill wastes. Loose-fill insulation, usually made of fiber glass, rock wool or cellulose, is blown into the attic or walls. Here the guys are getting ready to blow the rock wool into the wall through a small hole. DSC000397.JPG                       This is what it looks like when finished & ready for wallboard. DSC000398.JPG                                     REA....the Geo guys, arrived early. DSC000399.JPG                               & they continued working on the Geo system DSC000400.JPG Dinner: leftover chili with corn chips.

Lights out: 11:31pm.
