Ben got the five posts for the Pole Barn buried in cement. Rocky walked into two of them, and we are confining him in his stall for a bit. Roof supports and some tin roofing go up tomorrow. The scrappers want at least $1,200 to haul away the collapsed barn, with dump fees and all, so we may just wait on that or burn it ourselves. Or wait until next Spring. We can’t do everything we’d like now. The fencing work will start later in the week. Will Lindenholl, the electrician will upgrade the service to 200 amps next week and bring electricity to Maria’s studio and to the barn.
