The throne room (the toilet goes here).
The bathroom is located within the warm storage room/shop of the barn. The roof of the shop will
be a structural floor, so we won't lose any horizontal storage area.
Entering from the east door, the bathroom is directly in front of you.
Toilet, sink, water heater, room heater, and surge tank will be installed once the framing, sheathing, and drywall are complete.
Kristy, Doug and Bob delivered some of the stuff cluttering up the house to its rightful place... the barn.
Pre-production work on the video... if you missed it, you were supposed to click on the first picture on this page ;o)
The trusses for the roof/floor above the storage room. They look quite sturdy!
Hi, Pumpkin!
Progress is being made and everthing is looking great! The floor looks terrific, and meets up perfectly with the overhead doors. The next step for us is to finish installing the trim strips along the eaves of the long sides of the barn, put the rubber wind/rain/dust seals on the door frames, and finish as much of the fence as we can before the summer fades.
Later that same week...
Backhoe and Box Blade...
The new attachments look great - we'll put them to work this summer.
Framing, plumbing, and electrical (in progress). The roof is structural so we can use it for storage.

The conduit leads to the barn. We'll be able to run additional circuits later, once we get the barn layout finalized.
The empty conduit will simply end in an empty junction box for now.
The John Deere at home.
