Maybe I Need to Remodel My Barn

I spent the last week in China on business.  I was able to take in some sights, including the famed Terracotta Warriors, Tienanmen  Square and the Forbidden City.

While visiting the gate buildings and temples in the Forbidden City, I marveled at the detail of the structures.  The building were originally designed during the Ming Dynasty and were of wood construction with tile roofs.

Maybe I can redesign our gardens . . .


. . . or build a new ramp to the hay mow!


I could add some decoration to the gables . . .


. . . or paint the post and beam timbers.


I could add some decorative door hoods . . .


. . . or replace the door pulls and latches to the hay mow!


Maybe I should have put on a tile roof instead of a metal one?


What do you think?
