As of June 11th. All sides are done, however we encountered another challenge with the roof. The metal sheets are too short! They say measure twice, cut once, and I thought I had measured twice. Something went wrong and the sheets are about 4 inches too short. Mike will have to fabricate something to make it all work. All in all, we have made terrific progress.
Mike has always wanted a hay barn and with getting goats we decided it was time to go ahead and build one. We decided on 12 feet by 36 feet, 8 foot tall in front and 7 foot tall in back, closed in on three sides and open in front. May 27th I cleared about 30 dead apple trees from the land and on May 28th we dug post holes and went shopping for materials. It has been much more difficult than I had anticipated. We have had some obstacles to overcome, mostly from lack of experience. David has helped out alot there! He has talked me through the construction over the phone. Here are some pictures of the progress we have made.
