Got to spend a day with Kyle and Old Nate who went to Kentucky with me and Maranda tearing down a barn at Larry's house. I was able to salvage quite a bit of oak and chestnut siding as well as roofing boards. This barn was different than the one I had pictures of earlier; that one turned out to be junk so we abandoned it and went to the other. We started by taking the metal roof off and worked down from there. I had never taken one apart before so the goal was to take it down opposite of how I thought it was built. Everything went well and Larry was happy to get rid of it and to salvage some good chestnut out of the deal...after all he did own it. I have already de-nailed half of the siding and should get the rest this morning while the drywallers are sanding. This should be enough for most of what I needed and I have a couple more leads if not.
