We are currently taking a few days off from packing and preparation to spend time with family and friends. Sara, her sister, and I are enjoying a Halloween-themed get-together in Sleepy Hollow, New York.
We also completely serviced are small truck for its long journey to make room for our building supplies. We changed the transmission fluid and modified our cap to accommodate more stuff. We scored some great windows from a local discount home supply store (two 30x60" verticals, one 58x37" horizontal, and another shaped like Nevada, all for just $150!) and a 12" sliding compound miter saw. These items are TALL and take up a lot of room, so we bumped our cap up a few inches higher by putting 2x4 boards under it. Also since some supplies (like windows) are hard to come by on the ranch, we are planning which items we will buy out there and which will bring with us.
What do you think, gang? Should we get a sliding glass door or a traditional door with windows? We can get a slider in TX for not a lot of money, but we're not sure how well it will seal out creepy crawlies, etc (Cone-nose bug is not our friend!). The bonus window-ness would be awesome though. A traditional-style wood or metal door would probably have to be trucked out to TX from NY to get the best price, but it would probably seal better.
Feedback is appreciated!
