              In Vine City, activities include:  making Mr. Byses' home more
              energy efficient through the installation of vapor barrier
              underneath the house on the floor of the crawl-space,
              insulating the floor of the home (R-13 fiberglass insulation);
              installing blown cellulose insulation in the attic (bringing
              the R-value in the attic up to a R-30 rating).  In addition,
              volunteers will install an energy-efficient natural gas water
              heater; install weather-stripping and door sweeps around all
              exterior doors; new smoke detectors and a carbon-monoxide
              detector.  Volunteers also will provide assistance with house
              painting, plastering, and gardening and overall yard
              beautification/enhancement.
