Farm Projects

Dane, Ralph, and Javier have been working to get some projects wrapped up before we leave late next week.



They got all the columns set in concrete for the barn.









The children thought the columns made nice climbing apparatuses. If you look closely, you can see that they are each perched on one.




Orlando Klein, the builder, and his crew came out yesterday to put up the beams. They will return on Friday to put the roof on.






And here is the "heart" of the hydroelectric plant, the turbine, that Dane hopes to have installed this week.









Today it is rainy, but the rain has let up some this afternoon so the guys are down at the spring trying to get the highlifter pump for pumping water up to the house installed.


Lord willing, these projects will be completed before we leave. Check back for an update later this week or next.

From where did you all source the materials for the barn?
