old hay barn gets a new roof

Or at least gets rid of the old one

Rayan and Norbert removing the last of the nails

      All the old shakes and rafters are off.  Our burning pile is huge!  It's raining today and Doco is itching to set a match to the pile.  New rafter poles are cut and peeled.  New shakes are split and neatly stacked.  Many more shake-bolts standing by, if needed.  With school back in this week (hurray!) and Rayan's work-day shortened, the choice hay-barn sleeping quarters won't likely be ready for Emma, Ian and Scraps' arrival next week (for 2 months).  Fortunately there are other choice nests, not all occupied.
