  20. A look at the rear, the rotted sheathing is just mush and the insulation is soaked. I shudder to think of what I'll find when I pull the wall back.

  23. Closeup of the water beads on the insulation. This is "uphill" from the front termination bar. The trailer has been in the barn for over a month now.
