Austin decided it was time for the old barn to go. We hope Grandpa and Grandma are okay with that. We told them, and they said, okay, just save the poles. It was an old barn that was already here when Austin's parents moved in. Grandpa did some patching up, but the hay was still getting wet and moldy. We wouldn't even let the horses go in so they didn't get hurt.
So we emptied the barn, took off the pieces that were still good, and along came Mel.
From the time we saw Mel drive in until he drove away...50 minutes.

It is a good thing that Austin has some good builder friends who are going to help us build a new lean-to for the horses.

No barn burning party? Mel is super fast and good and you know the job will be done well.
Good idea with the video.
It is so nice to see someone has green grass! Congrats on the barn coming down. Wait till you see the tree that came down at our house!
No old barn? Ah it looks better already! Yup Mel does good work in a timely fashion! Everyone will be happier with a lean to that blocks the wind and rain! No barn burning party, but maybe a barn raising party? Lucky looks like she can supply the goodies!! :)
Your life is so cool. We never get to see old barns collapse in our back yard.
Elise and Lucy are kindred spirits. She is always on top of getting refreshments ready at our house. I think some people are born party planners.
