IT MAY NOT BE FINISHED ON SCHEDULE...

But the project has grown in scope a little in an attempt to make it even more functional. I have decided to make really big roof overhangs on 2 sides of the shed.

This will give me 40 sqaure feet of additional foofed reality. No floor, but none will be needed as I plan to use this area for my chickens and rabbits. Speaking of. Look what I picked up today!

Six hens and a rooster. I can't remember what they were except three of the hens will lay green eggs. I think they were called olive layers.😆😆 But, I'll get back to the shed.

THE ROOF IS FINISHED

Well, almost... tomorrow I need to put a little sealant around the tree that goes through the roof.(Did you notice it in the picture above?) I left it because it will provide a massive amount of shade on the shed and my animals. Plus it looks really cool.😂

GETTING CLOSE TO DONE

I'm considering taking a couple short cut to get the shed where I can get it lockable as this is what I really need to move along with the project. But for tomorrow, I will be trying to get a wall with the door framed in along with finishing the floor. We have a shed full of lumber to do it but it's a lot of work for one day.

And when I say it's a full day...that means a full day, if everything goes smoothly. Just those boards in the shed were a hassle getting to the shed, as they all fell out on the trip up the hill.😆

...Also today, we had to deal with a dead battery in the black truck, AND it ran out of gas....in the middle of the woods.😆😂 It all takes away a little time as we try to get things done, but all we can do is smile, and roll with the punches, right?

I SAY FAREWELL FOR NOW...

But we send each of you all love and heartfelt concern for your safely, health and we'll being. Thank you all for being so kind to follow along and share your love with my family.

Good one. Nice poultry work. Make the shed to be very strong and well secured to protect the hen against the attack of bush animals.
Good luck friend. I hope you keep us updated as they grow.
