We continue to experience severe cold. There’s nothing to be surprised about, after all, it’s the middle of winter, and it’s time for Epiphany frosts. Although weather forecasters promise that it will be warmer for Epiphany itself - this is not a plus, but it will be more comfortable for those who like to swim in the ice hole.
In such weather you won’t be able to work in the carpentry for long, and it’s not comfortable at all. What to do now!? I don’t really have a choice in this cold weather, so I’m thinking of starting to dismantle the barn, and at the same time I’ll take some sunbathing. Today, as the classic says: “Frost and sun; A wonderful day!”
From a distance, the barn looks more or less strong, and in theory it can be used for another five years. But not everything is so good - the roof could collapse at any moment. Yes, it’s not strange - it stood alone for so many years.
I won't dismantle the whole shed. I can't handle this volume. In a month, maybe I could have scattered it, but build it in return!? Therefore, I will only analyze a third. And in its place I want to build a garage. I already have one. And if you remember, it is also in disrepair and the car does not fit there, and the walk-behind tractor is now standing there. Although, most likely, I was in a hurry with its purchase: in the fall I didn’t work on it much, and now the prices for it have dropped by $300, but I leased it and would have overpaid considerably, although I could have taken out a loan from an agricultural bank at 5%. But it also has its own nuances: the land needs to be for private plots...
I decided to heat the bathhouse at the same time. The work was going to be hard and dusty, and at the same time I would immediately burn the wood chips so that they wouldn’t get wet. And besides, at Epiphany, a bathhouse is just that. It’s not so easy to find wormwood: there are many reservoirs in the area, but I don’t know where or what. On such a day, the water is the same everywhere, you can even wash your face from the tap. But just now, when you dive into an ice hole, your body also turns on protective mechanisms against icy water. And in such cases I have a well, and then a bathhouse...
