One of my favorite amenities of our property is the fact that we have a barn I HAVE A BARN! It is everything my little girl self always wished she’d have (see? Dreams do come true!). But, as thrilling as it is to have, it wasn’t built to my specifications…I’m still grateful that it’s a sturdy pole barn that can keep all sorts of animals warm and comfortable, there are some things that I still don’t love about the building. What can I say? I’ve worked in and visited a lot of barns and I know what I like.

The exterior is in dire need of having tin put on the outside (someday!), I wish there were some way to install automatic waterers (again, someday!) and there are six stalls inside, but only one of them is comfortably large enough for the horses. I mean, they can stand and turn around, eat, and do their business, but if they’re in one of the smaller stalls, they can’t lay down, which makes for some pretty crabby horses when they don’t get their deep sleep.
Power tools are a great equalizer. |
