Wildlife, living next to nature

I have been lucky enough to have lived in two farmhouses. One had a large barn ( Jersey) pack house ( NC) with all kinds of treasures within. Old is good too.

Hi tarheel,

Welcome. Did that NC one have one of those old tobacco drying buildings on the property?

Thanks. I am Lumber Jim's step pappy. He is 45 and I am 63. You are talking about a tobacco barn. Many have been restored into someone's party house. A pack house is a large barn with a drive through the middle.

These folks left us a bunch of wood...it's not usable for firewood, so I'm not sure what we're going to do with it!

Eventually, I'd like to insulate it and create studios (music and painting) for the family. I do the former, the wife and son do the latter.
