If you recall, we have been in the process of "saving" our old barn. We knew we would have to space it out over a few years. You can read more about it here: https://dickybirdsnest.blogspot.com/2017/12/the-barn-remodel-step-1.html. That was our 2017 project. Our 2018, was to paint and put a new metal roof on it.
In June, we hired Dairyland Painting: https://www.facebook.com/DairylandPainting/ and we couldn't be happier with the results. He first had to pressure wash all our painted buildings and then return after a few days and spray paint all of them. They look so nice! We used Hallman Lindsay Paint, made right here in Wisconsin:

Then in July, we hired an Amish company to put on the new metal roof. I didn't take too many pictures of that, as they don't like it. We couldn't be happier with their work!
Here is the barn this morning:
In 2019, we will be working on the inside with creating walls for reconfiguring stall spaces, hopefully painting the old timbers and replacing a window and barn door in the horses' stall. We will also work on the corral area and new fences around the barn. I am happy that Al and I were able to do our part in saving this old barn, thank you Lord! It isn't a big barn, but it's our barn and we love it!
