Concrete or gravel under barn wings

[phiferpharm]

Getting close now. Paint, Garage doors, finish the gable ends is about what is left for the actual structure. Hope that gets done this week and also to get the electrician in to run power and get the water out there.

Now to figure out what I'm gonna do with the inside for the kennels and work areas :thumbsup:

Well, the barn is done, electric , water, and interior wall/doors for the kennel is completed AND we finished putting in 1000' of fencing.

The fence turned out to be the back-breaker. My Basset Hounds like to dig, so we trenched down a foot and buried the bottom of the fence. We used 5' tall fence, so the fence with boards is still a little over 4 foot tall. Not a problem as the Hounds aren't jumpers .

The entire project came in about $2500 more than I originally thought it would, but that was due to me standing my ground with grandma ( yes dear, whatever you want - so what's 2K if it makes you happy :ashamed and adding 200 foot of fence and a larger electrical service. Overall, it was worth it and a great project.

Now, I'm waiting to get my DK45se this week!

Congratulations on both the barn and the fence!!!

What's the old saying? it's only money.

I've never regretted spending more for quality, but I've always regretted paying less.

Thanks Western and Eddie. I was fortunate to have several folks who were both really great workers and knowlegable about doing all that was required the right way. Professionals to the bone :thumbsup:
