Moving Dad's Shed

The flood had tilted this shed and scoured a hole in the ground. When the water dropped so did the shed into the 4 foot hole.

We didn't want to pull the shed from the hole since it would probably have fallen apart. If it was burnt, it would have damaged the pole shed next to it. My brother decided to roll the trailer out. He fixed some chains to it and used Dad's tractor to roll the shed.

At this point the chains broke. He brought some stronger ones the next day but Dad's tractor wasn't heavy enough or strong enough to finish pulling it over.

We borrowed the neighbor's tractor to finish the job. The shed was pulled away to a different part of the lot.

The shed had stored grain we used to feed cattle and hogs back when we raised them. It was recently used to store wood Dad used for various projects. It is still in one piece. Dad surely built a strong shed.
