The Pole Barn continued. . .

We have more pictures of our pole barn. This is being built according to my husband, Doug's,  plans - we have not seen it yet.  This is an interesting concept; to have a building built for you when you are not there and won't be there until sometime after it is finished.  


Doug will be taking a load in mid - to late October - he will be renting a 24' Budget truck to haul the first load of "stuff". I cannot help but wonder why we feel we need so much stuff? We have already gotten rid of a lot and will get of even more before that final move. In the meantime we are spending a few thousand  dollars moving what we feel we cannot part with. While he is gone the Arizona house will be at least 1/2 empty and I will begin giving the inside of the house a fresh coat of paint.


Work aside - here are the pictures of the pole barn. Since these pics. were taken our contractor has begun to put the siding on the building. 


Facing north towards our woods. The house will be to the right of this picture.

Facing east. If the house was built it would be seen from this direction and slightly to the right. The woods are to the left of the picture.

This picture was taken facing northwest and the big door entrance to the pole barn.  The "man" door is to the left of the big door. There will be another "man" door" on the northwest end of the pole barn.  Our woods are to the right.

The floor has been poured.

Siding - ready to go on last.

Light green siding - the dark green trim can be seen just to the left of the siding.
