Out goes the Barn, in comes the Garage-Part I

Last week we completed finance and contractor negotiations. This past weekend we began converting our pole barn (vintage 2006) to a garage, storage, workshop. That would translate get everything out, lay 1,050 sq feet of concrete, move water pressure tank, install water filter, put up external walls, windows, garage door, pedestrian doors and enclose overhead storage.

We got our home of three years (aka 'The Trailer', aka 'Jeff n Tami's Guest House', aka 'Trailer For Sale') moved Saturday and began clearing out
. Disregarding the trashed cat scratcher, the blue foam stuff on the left was insulation for under the trailer and will now be used as part of the insulation in the garage.

The pump house I built in 2008 was dis-assembled. It will be re-plumbed and moved inside the new garage. That will give it a better chance of withstanding our winters.

More to come. Stay tuned!
