I got an early start on our project this morning - first I worked with the rake and leveled out the gravel that was left at the site. Next, I measured out how big the chicken yard will be - about 20' x 25'. The coop will be 10' x 12'. I tried to get it lined up with the garden area and the house. Then I started laying out the foundation blocks. I think that was the hardest part, and the most important part - getting it all lined up, square and level. Then on went the foundation boards. Here is today's progress.
I made a lumber run tonight for plywood to finish the foundation and for materials for walls. We will get going on that in the morning.
