Winter Hibernation
« on: November 27, 2017, 09:55:06 AM »
Been working on the barn putting in new rough cut 3" x 8" x 10' floor joist and 3/4 ply for flooring.Trying to get ready for the oncoming Winter. This is the upstairs section of just a portion of the barn. This area is  roughly 20 x 40. Old joists and floor were getting bad. Right now I have 15 cleaned and stored, more to come. I will get better pictures as my cellphone just doesn't cut it.Barn is from the 1880s. Stay tuned.

That’s going to be sweet. Glad we don’t have to go through all that here in FL though. I couldn’t imagine.

Yeah, @Rub, you just have to contend with the occasional hurricane....  ;)

Lol you're right. Not sure which I'd rather deal with though.

The seasons as we know it in the northern half of the country:

Almost winter, winter, still winter, summer

When I was in metro ATL:

Summer, More Summer, Not Really Fall, Summer

And the thing is, it's not actually "hotter" in Hotlanta compared to the Midwest. Just more days that are warm.

CatskillSmoker that is some sweet kettle storage you'll have there.
It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch

That's some great storage space.  Nice work on the build out.

Barn flooring finished. Now its time to put all of them together for a family photo.
Lighting sucks in that part of the barn. Will see what I can work out.
Hopefully next week when we get out of the Arctic blast we've been having.
