Turkey Creek
5 year old buck +
This old barn is on the farm we bought last year. The piece on the ground was a lean to that was attached to this side of the barn. Wind separated it last Spring and I went ahead and helped it to the ground with the tractor. Started disassembling it last week. Some of the tin will be the walls for a "new" elevated blind for the kids to rifle hunt out of and the rest I will incorporate into something within the new house. The wide boards I will let age in the sun for a year until they all weather evenly. Probably use them for the walls in my office. I don't know when the barn was built, I would guess before 1950, I dont think they have built wood barns like that since at least then. It is crazy how heavy the boards are even they have been drying for at least 50 years I would guess. You don't find wood like that in aisle 19 at Menards. Old lumber speaks to my soul.
