Barn phase two

About a year ago, my wife and I built a barn on our property.


It's a pretty simple structure - just a big rectangular shell.


The plan is to use half of it as a garage/shop...


And the other half as a big open flex space.


Something we can use as an office, band practice space, party zone, etc.

We're finally getting around to building out the interior.


I'm acting as the general contractor and managing the whole thing—


Framing, electrical, plumbing, drywall, etc.


It can't be that different from running a branding project, right? đŸ‘€


Right now, we're in the middle of electrical and I already broke one of my biggest rules.


Long story short…


Save yourself a massive headache and DO NOT pay your contractors a deposit before getting all of the specifics in writing (scope, price, and timeline).


Oh well ... you live and learn đŸ˜‘


I will report back as we progress.

Song of the day
Heavy Heart by My Epic

^ Love this new track from the My Epic boys. They've been a band for almost 20 years and are putting out some of their best work yet. I actually used to book shows for them when I was in high school! đŸ¤¯
