Insulation Day


Today was insulation day! Dad didn't think it would be until later this week and had to put this insulation board up in the garage. Well he came up late last night and got a couple of sheets up. The rest he measured and cut and tacked them up. I went over there early this morning to finished hammering in the million nails. As you can see you have to put them every few inches and on every stud. 

This was towards the end of the day when I went back over there to pay them. One person blows it in while another person sucks it back up. The third person packs it in and smooths it out. It is a very MESSY job! Imagine all those bits and pieces of newspaper flying around everywhere just like little pieces of confetti.
The finished product.

Football Merchandise

It's football season and Walmart has all their Razorback merchandise out. I was browsing the aisle the other day and saw these. I immediately thought whiskey! A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

Dogwoods

Sunday I inventoried our Dogwood Trees. We have 24 total. Some are just small bushes. There are probably about 12 big trees. I marked them so that when we are clearing brush later we won't kill them. My hope is to clear out some around them so they can all grow into large trees. They are absolutely beautiful to look at!!! I want to get some more pictures, but I got Poison Ivy on my legs the other day so I'm staying out of the woods for now.
