We are getting quotes from builders and I have it narrowed down to 2. Here’s what we decided on. 40x60x16, 2 14x14 insulated garage doors, 10’ wide mezzanine with stairs running 40’ length of far end, 8x10 bathroom framed in under mezzanine. 2 man doors, 6 slider windows, 6 unopening...

Reviving this thread. Any new experiences or how your barns are doing. I’m in the seeking bids process for a 40x60 pole barn to be built in Marinette county.

This!! Love my TC smoke pole shooting the Blackhorn 209. It’s fun trying different weights of powder to see what the gun likes the best. I can touch holes at 100 yards with it. Luckily I still have some BH 209 left from before the company got sold. Now it’s 💰 to get.

I’ll take my Browning X Bolt in 6.5 Creedmoor out for opening day. After that I might switch to my muzzleloader. Love the smoke pole.

The guards have saved my tractor several times. I’m in NE Wisconsin so probably too far away but thanks for thinking of me.

I eventually was able to speak to the expert from the UW extension for my area. He identified my issue as winter damage. He said this is classic winter damage and it was experienced area wide in levels not seen in 40 years from commercial growers to residential trees. He explained that it was...

Ground some more stumps last weekend. These were 2 big ones in the front yard. Before and after pics.

Def Leppard, Bon Jovi, Metallica, Guns & Roses. I’m still pissed at G&R. I had tickets to their concert when they were touring with Metallica. Concert got cancelled when G&R broke up.

Is Wainscoting worth adding to the exterior?

Great ideas guys, keep them coming. The electric pedestal at the barn and then running from there to the new house when we build it makes sense. Sandpoints are still legal where I’m at. Having a flush toilet may be difficult as the existing septic is quite a ways from the barn site and we...

Good idea. I’m also thinking plenty of exterior lights with a few security cameras, good LED lights inside, a floor drain, and some ceiling fans.

I’m retiring in February and then we are moving up to our cabin and land up north in NE Wisconsin. We plan on putting up a 40x60 pole barn next year. Thought I’d pick your brains for ideas for the design. It will be on the opposite side of our paved driveway from where the house is. In a few...

Sorry some of the pics posted multiple times

I have 5 trees that are not looking good. All my other trees are looking great and these were great last year. On some the buds look like they withered away and on others they look really late waking up. 1st 2 pics are an Early Gold Pear planted in 20, 3rd pic is a 20 Snow Sweet, 4th is a 16...

She gave us 12 great years which is a long time for a Boxer.
