[Namron] New Shed purchase

Thu Aug 22 08:07:53 PDT 2013

I have to say that a shipping container never crossed my mind.  It does
look like it might make some economic sense.  But the existing pad is in a
very visible spot -- even with the Baronial achievement, is a shipping
container really what Kyna & Andrew want at the center of their property?
A shed is visually less obtrusive in my opinion.  Also, the dimensions of
the existing pad are very different from a long, narrow shipping
container.  A container might work well over towards the western property
line, where it would be less visible, but then it would need an entirely
new pad.  It would also be about as far as you can get from the archery
site.
