    Cole, do not bury those wires behind the tin. You are asking for trouble if you do when one of those lights needs service or replacement. As a retired electrician I can tell you conduit is going to be a better option for you. Heck use electric PVC pipe if you don't want to learn how to bend pipe. Once you pull that rope and put the tin up you have locked yourself out of any future upgrades.
    Don't cheap out like you did on the other project that's so well-lit now.

She is currently in the hospital and started out with pneumonia. And they found out that she has a weak heart and while she was their, she had a mild heart attack. We don't think she has much time left because nothing the doctors do seems to be helping.

When I moved into my house the mice had the insulation chewed back 2 1/2 feet from the fixtures in the attic. It’s cheep insurance on such a large investment.
