Efficiency Renovation

I realized that I haven't said much about anything other than the pigs, and this farm has much more to explore!  The efficiency is my current project.  This is pretty much a before picture, even though the interior has almost completely been gutted.  I plan to change it's look quite a bit, so this picture will suffice.  I will try to remember to update the blog regarding this project more often, or at least every time I make progress on the renovations.

Today I had Nature's Way Pest Control stop by for a free pest inspection, and I'm very impressed with them.  They adjusted their usual inspection hours for me because I'm on the Swing shift, so that was the first thing that impressed me.  I told them sometime between 9am and noon, and the earlier the better, and they were here right at 9am.  Awesome.  The inspection revealed that there was damage caused by carpenter ants, powder post beetles, and water.  He told me that as long as I am replacing the damaged wood that I don't need to have the building treated!  How often does that happen?  I figured he was going to tell me that I was going to need hundreds of dollars of treatments.  He even gave me a few pointers for the renovation, and was on his way after only about 15 minutes.  So that's my not-so-shameless plug for today!

Thanks for reading,

P.S. Just wanted to publicly thank Chris Roney for helping me with the beginnings of this project, and I'm sure more to come.  Thanks man!
