Little Barn for the Little House - Here it is!


































Here it is! Our 'Barn-Baby'!! Haha. It was very exciting to watch the delivery! The trailer-truck had to slowly back up our long driveway. "Joseph" was walking next to the barn directing the driver. They stopped in front of our house. The men had to talk things over. The backing up into the final resting place of the barn didn't go as planned. Wheels spinned, heads spinned, too!

In the end the barn was put there, but it is still to be moved a little more into the corner there. The construction company will do that, because they will still do work at our driveway.

For now, we are all very happy! Thank you, Joseph, for your good work ! (but....being Amish, he will never read this post ;-)

Hier ist es also, unser "Stall-Baby". Haha. Es war eine schwere Geburt! Der Anhaenger musste die ganze lange Einfahrt rueckwaerts hochfahren. "Joseph" lief nebenher und gab Anweisungen. Dann hielten sie vor unserem Haus an. Die Maenner mussten alles weitere besprechen. Das Einfahren in den vorgesehenen Platz ging nicht so gut von statten wie es sollte. Raeder drehten durch und Koepfe rauchten! Aber zum Schluss wurde der Stall hingestellt, muss demnaechst nur noch etwas mehr in die Ecke gerueckt werden, von der Baufirma, die uns auch die Einfahrt noch macht. Jedenfalls sind wir alle gluecklich und zufrieden. Vielen Dank, Joseph, fuer deine gute Arbeit! (allerdings, weil er ja Amish ist, wird er diesen Eintrag im Internet nie lesen ;-)
