Me too! It helps to distract from the junkyard vibe I have going.It's going to be so nice for you!
I love your view.

Are you going to close that gap between the roof and wall? From my perspective, anything that can survive your winters must be really, really strong and tough. 
I have a junkyard vibe in a couple of areas at our place too, along with our son's old Jeep Gladiators, Willy's pickup, Ford truck, Ford mustang, Jeep Cherokee's and a Jeep CJ...we have a few personal vehicles also, we look like a wrecking yard!Me too! It helps to distract from the junkyard vibe I have going.
We're working on getting stuff cleared out, but it takes time.

My son has his own junkyard. He's going to rebuild the old trucks some day. Being gone all the time, most of the time out of state, gives him no time to putter around with them.

Ha! That was sorta the plan...Are you going to close that gap between the roof and wall? From my perspective, anything that can survive your winters must be really, really strong and tough.
But, I THOUGHT I had some more plastic panels stored in the garage... and they are nowhere to be found.
Sooo...... do I want to BUY materials?
The back wall of that coop is just pallets, so air is going to be going through, but the goal is to keep out most snow. Which is why I thought the top gap should be closed with plastic sheets, and I also wanted the south wall next to the coop (where the coop entrance is) to have some plastic sheets, to block wind and blowing snow.But again..... what happened to my stack of plastic sheets???
I think, maybe, I am willing to go buy some..... but... clearly this will need a day or more of working up to being ok with the unplanned expense.
Feed bags as a stopgap?Ha! That was sorta the plan...

We don't have that much snow yet... but yeah, if I decide not to buy the plastic, I could just staple feed bags up there

Oh... last week? I set up a bunch of bulbs to force... we shall see how that works. It has been eons since I have done it.
Tulips, hyacinths, and daffodils.
