For a temporary measure, you can always run a grounded, weatherproof, heavy-duty extension cords out to a tank to have a water heating device for the winter. Not the best solution, but it may alleviate hauling water out that far.<BR/><BR/>You'll get a better idea of what you really need going through a year with the barn as it is...in that time, you'll get an idea about light, water, placement of stuff...well, you know what I mean.<BR/><BR/>Congratulations!Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16933105773412843275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22671526.post-63533000156451405452007-11-18T15:54:00.000-06:002007-11-18T15:54:00.000-06:00Congratulations on a really handsome barn -- I lov...Congratulations on a really handsome barn -- I love it! But I'm with you, I think VISUALLY the west side would look better with brown siding going all the way up. But if that is a side you don't see often, I'd leave it, because having more light in a barn is a very good thing, especially if you don't have electricity in it (I can't imagine NOT having electricity in a barn, but whatever). One question, though. Will your hay be stacked against the west wall? If it will be, blocking the light, I would probably make them switch out the panels to brown ones.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01550786937196525098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22671526.post-37150577837114016732007-11-18T07:35:00.000-06:002007-11-18T07:35:00.000-06:00Hi Nancy, Your barn is BEAUTIFUL!

I don't think the panels look odd and where they are on the back of the barn, only you will notice. I love the natural light and think that you will too. <BR/><BR/>I know it's been a long, windy road for you. No more than you deserve!<BR/><BR/>Deb<BR/>Tylerfarm<BR/>MaineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22671526.post-35815382924915472712007-11-16T22:17:00.000-06:002007-11-16T22:17:00.000-06:00Ooh - love the barn Nancy - I have barn envy now. ...Ooh - love the barn Nancy - I have barn envy now.

I figure that if I had electricity, I could just fill a BIG HEATED water bucket instead of having to haul water (running water IN the barn is a future goal!) every day in the winter...Nancy K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06061265740359266798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22671526.post-71975633698410653662007-11-16T17:17:00.000-06:002007-11-16T17:17:00.000-06:00I just have to say it one more time.
