Looking toward the southeast ...
... and toward the northwest.The insulation says "Thermal and sound control," and it was doing some good already at this stage -- my footfalls didn't echo in the room as they had before. Of course, once we put up drywall, we'll have an echo chamber again! I guess that's one of the reasons people want texture on their walls ... we're still looking into the natural plaster option, which I think will help alleviate the echo-chamber effect as well.
Dave's aiming for the recommended R-value of 49 in the ceiling in the addition, which is accomplished with two layers of insulation -- one R-19 and the other R-30.... I've been doing some weaving lately! It's a nice stress reliever, really -- watching how the colors blend together as I weave them. I'll post a picture once I've got something off the loom!
