Fish Guts

Ruthie* Dan and I biked down to the rice mill again (this time on my own bike) to work on our project. Also this time the media girls came with us. We needed them to take pictures of each step in the milling process so we can have pictures in our operations guide. This actually took quite awhile, but it needed to be done.
Nate* This morning Kevin and I started on our biodigester. We got metal barrels and both cow and chicken manure with Bryan. We spent most of the morning mixing the poop with water and filling the barrels. We are starting the poop in barrels because they are more manageable than a 30 foot plastic balloon in the ground. Once we are sure the manure is going we will move it into the constructed biodigester. Most of the locals that we have talked to are very interested in starting their own digester at home. We spent our afternoon gutting fish. It didn’t smell as bad as I thought it would. The weirdest part was how the tilapia would continue to flop around with all of their guts removed. Ruthie said I was a horrible person for gutting live fish…
