Laaaaaaand HO!!

Yes, I've filed a tax exemption for the Flying M Ranch to grow mistletoe. After all, what did you think the M meant in Flyin' M??

The interior of the barn is about 83% done on the frame out! I had to use scaffolding lent to me by the electrician, which is always a fun and exciting thing to climb. If the wobbly legs don't instill confidence in your climb to 20ft, the loose crossbars and warped platforms surely will! And of course with the end in sight, I've decided to increase that workload and add a large cedar wrapped center beam that the ceiling fans will mount to down the center aisle. I still need to frame that out, and apparently, I'm now adding a hay loft above the mini-horse stalls too.

On deck are the jail bars and doors for the stalls, hay loft joists, and a whole host of other things piled up in the corner to do. So, when will this done? The plan is to have this done in February and then it's onto the shops!

More to come with such instructional lessons as "Two by Fours: The real measurement" and "Measure twice, cut thrice".
