    We can meet sometime and I will take the roofing to Kev if you can't make it to Dennis's. I figure if you are going, maybe you will ride with me or vice versa as long as we both go for the same amount of time!

    Wow, a build thread. I really enjoy following a build thread. I don't get out much at all now. Just go to MD appointments and once in a while to one of the kids homes. Walking is a real problem and shortness of breath.
    I like the idea of having the Amish do the build for you. They do a lot around here. All I hear is good things about their work. We have to be really careful for them when they are on the road. I feels so sorry for the horses who have to compete with cars and some ignorant drivers. There have been accidents which should have been avoided.
    Best of luck to you with the build. I hope it meets your expectations.

    Good morning. I can understand where you are coming from. He only has one more pile to go. It is one of my small piles. I told him to put it on the front porch for me.
    Currently I am here at Buf VA Hospital. Hopefully I will be home sometime this week. Either way they start dozing later this. Hopefully Chaz will be there to take pics if I am not. Don't know if plans to take off work or not. He is a friend of ours and he stopped up yesterday to talk to him.

    I probably will but so far I don't even know who is coming this year. I may have to do some prodding.

    Well if you get that started, it will help you figure out who is coming.

    The cleared field is where the barn is going. Jerry our dozer guy, told me earlier that he isc looking at starting to level the field. Once that i9p done, will be bringing in gravel that will need to be leveled for a cement pad.
    Then the Amish come in and finish pads then raise the barn.
