Hubby is pretty well set that the barn, no matter how much character it has, needs to come down. That will be hard when it happens, but the upside is it will allow for a larger garden near the house, as opposed to putting it out in the pasture where he is thinking he wants to put it.
Here are some pictures of the barn I took on the last trip.
Our back property line ends here. At the back of the barn.
Long story about that, and I don't know all of it for certain, but anyway, hubby wants to tear it down. He is certain there is no part that can be salvaged as a whole, but we do want to reuse the lumber.
So, is there one way that is better than another? When you reuse something, how do you go about it? Does the wood need to be re-planed just to use on another outdoor building? Or is simple sanding (and eventually painting) enough?
Curious minds want to know.
Happy Friday and a blessed weekend to you all! :-)
