Garage wood from the Amish


Andy and I will be building my garage. A Post and Beam 30 x 27 1/2 salt box. Most of the wood will be rough sawn bought from an Amish family, just down the road, that has a mill. The stack here is the first (of three) loads of pine (stacked in a triangle to dry). Walls; floor and roof will be pine. The Post and Beams will be rough sawn hickory (also from the Amish) and old timber from a local barn that was dismantled. (we're talking 8 x 10 beams 24 foot long - gonna need a crane to lift them - Andy says he has it all figured out - we'll see)
