Looking good Mark and Bev, it's going up pretty fast. I see you used book shelf girts, you must be going to insulate the barn. Can you tell us the dimensions of the barn? Are you putting it up your self or are you having a company do it? I ask because I know you usually do it by yourself but it looks like you have help this time.

Gordon, we will be insulating barn to help with our extreme temperature swings. That's one of the reasons for the two foot on center girts.The other is for strength. John & his crew has come back again to help get this built. It is 30'x 40' with to 10' x 10' doors for tractor to get in. I will be storing all the attachments in side also. This winter our garage became wither storage so can hardly walk in there. We will be moving the chickens coop into it to give us more nesting boxes for egg production.

Your new barn really looks great. What a nice addition to the house. Fill that garage with firewood for winter. See you soon. Dad

We love the new barn. I'm hoping to get it ready for winter this year. It on the list but pretty close to bottom.
