Insulation board installation.....

 7:43 am - Wednesday - March 25th - TWW - 50° F, humidity 17%, cloud cover ZERO %, wind 5 mph out of the southeast.....crystal clear, blue, sunny skies today with a forecast high of 82° F.  On this date in 2012 TLE and I were overnighting at the Walmart in Daphne, AL.....

.....we got out our bicycles and took a ride along the seashore, then stopped at East Shore Cafe for a late lunch.  The view this morning....

....time to wash that window....lol.

After checking on the greenhouse first thing Tuesday morning TLE and I got to work installing the insulation board I bought a couple of months ago....talk about procrastination....lol.  We worked about 3 hours, cutting and installing the hardest pieces.  By the time we stopped it was after 1 pm, and we had both had enough of working in direct sunlight....

....I had to reposition the Bluetti battery bank to make room for the insulation board.  We cut and installed three pieces along the back wall.  Then the ceiling, which was the most difficult piece, then the right wall.  All that remains is the piece for the left wall, a small piece in the left corner, then the door pieces and we're done.  I bought six 4' x 8' insulation boards, and I believe we will use them all.  There is a lot of waste as we cut the individual pieces to fit the space, and we've used 3 of the 6 so far.  This is a much tidier insulation installation than the fiberglass one we did last winter.  The remaining pieces will be the easiest cuts of all, and shouldn't take more than an hour.....famous last words?

Charles and Phyllis arrived around 1 pm for another two day stay.  Once they were unpacked they hooked up the water trailer and headed over to the water station with TLE.  I had had too much sun at that point, and decided to remain behind while they fetched another 1,870 gallons of water.  Upon their return around 3:20 pm I headed over to the water tower to help Charles pump the water into the top, then the bottom tanks.  We, apparently, were within 50 gallons of filling filing the top tank when we ran out of water last Sunday, so we were able to put around 1,800 gallons in the bottom tank, leaving just 700 gallons to fill it.  We'll do that when Charles and Phyllis return again next Tuesday.

By the time we finished pumping the water, putting away the suction hoses, and the Predator water pump it was a little past dinner time, so I washed up and joined everyone in the house for our communal meal.  Since we got the water haul done on Tuesday we can spend the bulk of Wednesday working on leveling the barn roof, then sealing it so it won't leak anymore.  That will be another major milestone here at TWW.

Thanks for stopping by!
