Sunday Go 'Round The Farm -- Barn Update Overdue [View all]

Laurie stood, looking out the kitchen window recently, thinking how she was supposed to have had a barn well before now.

Recalling work she'd done inside the structure, like renting a flat-plate compactor to even out the barn floor. (Our puppy-niece Pepper "helped".)

The new contractor, call him C, has been inconsistent. He had unreliable help.
So C worked alone. Here, looking at what still needs to be done.

And, by himself, getting it done.





Shadow saw no need for supervision, so she had a good roll instead.



That same day Laurie took delivery of two pallets of "mud grids" for the
barn floor and paddocks.

from standing out of the mud. That's what Laurie plans for Maddie and Pete.

And so, friends, that's as far as we've gotten. C is back on the job.
We've not given up hope.
