Back To The Barn

 We haven't spent much time working on the barn for many months, but the open corner kept reminding us that we needed to get back to work, so we have been spending time on recent weekends going up and down ladders, nailing in new stringers, and fitting new siding boards.  Our goal for this week is to close in this corner and treat the boards with linseed oil in preparation for painting.

When the southwest corner is finished we need to start in on the northwest corner.  After that, there is plenty more to do; actually we will never be done, but I do think we are starving some of the termites, and that is gratifying.
