Attic venting

There were old heater roof stacks coming out of the roof of Columbine. Our pesty chipmunks were using them as their front door, so the MMAPers took them out and replaced them with proper venting.

New Windows (new to us)

We got 30 used windows from a retirement home in Denver. The MMAP (Mobile Missionary Assistant Program) volunteers have been working this week putting ten of the windows in at Columbine. Columbine is an office on the left side, a meeting room in the middle, and summer staff housing on the right. We will see a big savings in electricity this winter with the new windows!

Pinecones!

The attic of Columbine has tons of pinecones in it!

The ground squirrels for years have been going into the crawl space and up in the walls and into the attic.

We have had two guys getting all the pinecones out for the last four days. They work up there for two hours in the AM before it gets too hot up there, shop-vacuuming all the debris.
