After yet another delay, the heavy equipment showed up today to prepare the pad for our new barn... They promise to have it finished tomorrow fl and they will start building on Wednesday morning..  The lumber package was delivered today..  I'm going to try and take pictures everyday to show progress..

Here's the site before any work has been done...

The barn will be a pole barn with steel exterior..  36 x 60.  It will eventually have five 10 x 14 stalls down one side.  The end and other side will be bird pens.  We'll have a work room at the front and then a full 2nd story for storage..

Here's hoping there are no more delays!!!

Yay Shawn, I'm glad you are finally getting started. Hopefully the dlays and hassles are behind you. I'll be tuning in to watch the progress.
