Some background pictures. I'll tie it together in a later post.

This is the north side of the north barn. We are going to enclose this to make a chicken coop. I know, there are already 2 structures called "chicken coops", but one is too small and both are too far from the big house.

tractor implements. about 10,000 pounds I'm guessing. Not really, but after I had moved it...

"new" chicken coop. This is the last coop Grandpa Wayne built. A tree has grown directly in front of the door. I cut it mostly away with the little chainsaw. Now that I have the big saw I can finish the job.
