As you might imagine, there is always a project underway (actually several) at the farm.  We love to stretch the limits of our abilities and see what we can accomplish using our own hands.  My husband built his first barn at the age of 16 and has enjoyed building things out of wood ever since.  Any given weekend, you'll find us trying to fill a materials list which is written on a scrap piece of paper with a rough drawn schematic of the project to be accomplished.  The only thing that delays getting the job done, are all of the breaks that we take to admire the milestones of the project as they are achieved.
