STILL FILLING HOLES

It's a picture from two winters ago. It's not snowing here yet. We had a very light dusting a couple of nights ago that quickly melted away. We are supposed to get some snow next week.

Today housemate Levi is caulking holes throughout this old house (1790) and there are many of them. I just did some cleaning of the heating units in the downstairs rooms that were loaded with dust. Might as well try to make them more efficient while we are at it.

Two days ago Karen, MB and I were putting insulation on the water pipes in the basement. There is always much to do here.

Ran into friend Richard Clement in Portland last night at our monthly Maine Veterans for Peace meeting. He kind of laughed about our 4-foot hole worth of drafts in the house. He had read about it here on the blog. Well Richard, I can proudly say we think we've got it down to about 3-feet by now.......

Nothing like trying to heat the whole neighborhood. We are just trying to do our bit you know.
