Neighbor did not want this building anymore.I thought it might be a good place for hunters to stay with a little work. The wife, people who gave it to me and many more did not think I could move it. Ha Ha

Throw you a window or two, and it'll be good to go!

I will have to cut the fence to get to my place, cut a bunch of trees, smooth out some washes. I am not going to break any speed limits out in the pasture. The dozer was the only thing I have that will pull it and do the road work necessary to get it there.

That's a great neighbor, should make a nice cabin. Can't beat the price either!

Don't you just love it when someone says you "can't" do something.

Tons of potential and only limited by your budget and imagination.

Congrat's on a great score. A roof over one's head, irregardless of where they are at, is always a good thing.

That looks a little too easy! You need something that requires 2-3 months work to get ready, ha ha ha! From the picture it looks like it has a sound roof as well.

I agree you hit the jackpot.

I was given the building because it is at a ranch that the parents passed away and was not longer used. I bought an old trailer that was originally used to haul dozers. Welded four 8 inch puring on the bed to get height over the tires. Now I would have to raise the building up at least 2ft. to get it on the trailer. How to do that? I had a brain storm in the middle of the night. I have a dozer, dig a hole deep enough for the trailer to be at the same level as the building. So I dug a ramp, got the trailer the same as the building, put a cable around it, greased the purling and pulled it on the trailer. I love it when a plan come together. Now all I have to do it cut trees and fence and figure out where I want to set it.
