Tim continues the work on the old barn. He is replacing the foundation (did I tell you he is doing all the work by himself?) and shoring up supports inside.
He got two huge jacks and lifted up the barn to redo the foundation.
You can see how the barn had begun leaning in this picture.
He is also reconfiguring the space inside
and took down the wooden wall between the two box stalls and put in a gate. Now we can open that space up if need be.
Now that the blue barn and its pasture have been sold, Tim is fencing the lane between the paddock behind the new barn and the southeast paddock.
He's removed some of the fencing on the southeast paddock
and is recycling it as fencing for the lane
as well as replacing the fencing between the new barn paddock and the agribusiness.
And while he is at it, he's replacing a few posts
gotten our hay supply in for the winter,
and is clearing dead wood out of the northwest pasture.
It sure is looking nice and I'm glad that, while repairs and changes are being done, it will still be the old barn with its old-age charm when he is done.
