Looking into the attched shed from the barn. Once revamped, this will be the run-in shed for the mules.

Future run-in shed - the doors will be removed and hopefully the entrance will be raised a little. Mister would have to duck to get in there now!

Apparently this old pump organ has been in this attic for longer than anyone can remember. It's gorgeous!

gutted!

Floor ripped out, here's what was underneath. Found part of a tractor, an old shoe, a beer bottle and a bone of some sort. Treasures!
Luckily the sills of the shed were in really good shape; only one corner was slightly rotten and that was replaced.

After thinning! Much better, the smaller trees can BREATHE now. Hopefully I'll be making the area in front and around this patch a shade garden.

graded!

The couple I hired to do the Two Mule Palace rented a machine to cut down the hump in front of the shed, using that dirt as fill for the inside of the shed. (It took a lot more than just that dirt - there's quite a bit of road pack in there, too!) They also sloped the ground on a downward angle away from the shed to encourage surface water to run out of the pen. No mud pits here!
