| First Perment Post |
Ending the 4th week is a good time to see what's been happening. Here is one very important item, the first permenant post that will be a part of the 'new' barn is seen in its place. It's a 4x4 oak post that sits on top of a peer of cement. It is covered in tar which will protect the post and extent its life as sand and cement are laid down for the barn to be used years into the future.
Yesterday we saw a footing put in place by Don Bloome and the problem removing it. Well today the air hammer won and a new footing was put into place only a bit deeper.

Some of the beams in the barn are rotted beyond saving and this floor could use a few more floor boards. In a future post we'll discuss these two items in relation to harvesting wood from our forest just like they did when building the barn.
