Step 1. Post
Dan and his family came out for the weekend and ended up staying an extra day so we put all the post in.
First two poles..
Every one wanted to help.
I had such a hard job.
Now time to set the poles
The ladies "supervised"
Look at those muscles!
Even the baby helped.
Dan had to leave before we where done but I was able to get them all set before the rain.

Clean up.
Carl Ben and I cleaned up all the metal and took it to the junkyard and got over $120 for it. :D Then our neighbor came over with his dump truck and bobcat and loaded up all the hay, junk, metal, nails, and the rest of the summer kitchen and hauled it away at no charge. :D He also smoothed it out for me. God is good!

Haiti and Barn
I know a lot of you have been asking how things are going so here is a little update….
Other than being very busy with work, I went down to Haiti about three weeks ago for two weeks. It went really well and I had a lot of fun. We went down there to teach some kids at an orphanage typing tutor and to give the directors a break. Giving the directors a break came a bit faster and bigger than we expected… the night we got there they told us that they are leaving the next day in the afternoon and leaving us in charge of the orphanage for the weekend. That was a challenge but went well.
The day before we left I got an email telling me that my barn had burn down at home along with all my goats (a bunch of them where new kids) some sheep, and all a bunch of wood working tools. That was hard to take and deal with for me and I think harder for my family since they felt responsible and saw it burn down. But God is good and sent lots of friends around to comfort and for support. Last week I received a gift from a friend and with that I should be able to rebuild the whole barn this year. Praise God!
So with business and building my barn and everything else that I want to do I am going to be very busy this summer.
