Here in western Washington, we don't get heavy snow loads, but do get high winds coming from the south west, and can happen winter or summer. We mostly have rain all winter. Five years ago I wanted protection from wind and rain for my old AC's, and some hay. I went to carports.com, and bought 3 carports that ere 20 ft. x 21 ft., and had them set up as a single building, with two open ends. I poured four concrete runners, 22 ft long, 1 ft. wide, and 2 ft tall. About one foot was in the ground, and they were squared, and on 20 foot centers. This was 2 weeks before the shed arrived, so they had a little curing time. I paid a little extra for taller frame work, so I could drive through without my mufflers hitting, and also gained some height from my concrete runners. The concrete is too heavy for the shed to lift in the big winds, and the frame work is lagged down to the runners with 1/2" quick bolts. After the shed was up, I took measurements, of the south end opening, and went to Tacoma Truss Co.and had frame work made for 6 half doors, to enclose the south end. I set 4 treated poles at the south end of each runner, to hang my doors from, and covered the Half doors with matching sheet metal. We rarely get weather from the north, so I left the north end open. My hay and machinery stays dry, and I can drive thru if I want to. It looks good, and does what I need, at a cheap price. I can stack 2 round bales on end, for height, but have to watch hitting the metal roof with the loader bucket.

Today's Featured Article - When Push Comes to Shove - by Dave Patterson. When I was a “kid” (still am to a deree) about two I guess, my parents couldn’t find me one day. They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
