I'm finally getting a barn built, 42'x72'x16'. 20' and 22' sliding doors, 20' split doors facing west and 22' single door facing north. (I wanted a 25' door, but my builder (Pioneer pole buildings for those familiar) recommended 22' for cost reasons. I'm excited, I've needed a barn for a while, and this should meet my needs for years to come. I live here in SE Michigan and I have a question for the northerners.

I've been around this stuff, but Dad didn't farm and this will be the first Barn I or Dad will have owned. I'll have to post some pictures of the barn and my fleet of equipment when I'm done for everybody to enjoy.
