He Lined His Walls With Wool — Unaware It Saves Him When a Blizzard Buries the Town

A frontier man shears his last sheep and stuffs raw wool into every wall cavity and crack of his drafty cabin as a cheap quick fix before winter. He doesn't know wool holds heat even when damp and naturally resists rot. When a blizzard buries the town and other cabins lose heat within hours as fires die, his wool-packed walls hold warmth for days longer than any log structure around him. He sleeps through the worst night of the storm. Neighbors who nearly froze come asking what he did differently. The answer was in his walls.
