When we were building the soaproom, Mom asked Dad and Lucky, “Is there any reason to have a ten foot ceiling on the soaproom? Because if we don’t need it, we can just build the soap room eight feet high and save some money.” No one could think of any reason to have a ten foot ceiling, so the soap room was framed at eight feet and covered in metal.
A few weeks later, Dad realized the reason a ten foot ceiling had been planned when the walk-in freezer for the milk arrived. And yep, it was nine feet tall.
And so we put on the freezer room addition before the soaproom was even completed.
In order for the roof to look good we had to take off that whole strip of metal and put it back on.
The door on the right in this picture, which originally was going to lead outside, opens into the freezer room.
Lucky and his crew did such a great job, it actually looks like we planned it from the beginning!
Despite it not being in the original plans, we like the freezer room much better than what we had initially planned for the freezer. In this location, the boys are able to bring the goat milk from the barn directly to the freezer without having to go through the soaproom.
God was looking out for us the whole time we were building!
