In The Nick of Time

We worked from sunup to sundown Saturday and Sunday, and then from noon to past dark on Monday, to finish our barn. Or at least get it done enough to keep the animals dry and shelter the remaining water and electrical work ahead of us.

I didn’t take pictures of everything we did, but here’s a rundown: finish siding the back, add corner trim and door trim, stack the lumber inside, make finishing connections for the water system, fill trenches with dirt, create animal stalls, move feed and milking stand to new barn, move fences, create corridor for animals to enter and exit, add gate to keep animals from leaving the wrong way and down the driveway, dirt work to prevent water running into the barn, and turn on the new water system.

We felt so good last night, even though it was late when we came in. Jeff had taken most of yesterday (Monday) off so we could finish. We hoped we would. It was the last sunny day. God worked it out – helped us finish. We got the animals moved in the nick of time – as last night it started raining!

    Wonderful job! You must have been exhausted, but a good tired, huh? I can picture the goats with the hair up on their backs, checking everything out. They’re so funny. You guys really did get this project done in good time. For starting so late, it came together rather quickly. I know it probably doesn’t seem quick to you but sometimes it takes us months or years to finish a project like this! LOL! The pictures are great but I can’t help wishing I could see it in person. :)

    Gracious me — what a change has been made since we were there in July. It looks GREAT. I am so proud of all of you working together to accomplish such a huge task. Is the water running into the house now? Good job and we look forward to seeing it someday — hopefully sooner than later. We love you and miss you.
