More Sheep Shed

It's mostly done at this point. We used stained cedar fencing for windbreak walls. The front will stay open, facing south, and the open part of the east wall where the pallets are will be blocked by hay bales so the sheep should stay cozy inside. Bob's going to build a few shelves for storage and as of now we're going to try hanging hay in string bags in the east corner. If the bags don't work it will be pretty simple to build a hay rack there. The sheep don't need grain but will need loose minerals and possibly baking soda. And of course a tank of water outside. Hopefully we'll get some good weather in the next couple weeks to make the drive out to Snohomish for the animals.
