When it Rains...it Snows!

 Planning for our ranch has taken on some new and interesting challenges now that our "slice of ranch" is located where it snows.

The existing barn has room for our tack room, but we altered our first thought and are now placing the tack room in the center of the building because the existing walls are perfect for hanging saddles. We are planning to add shelves on one side for tack boxes, buckets, and ingredients for our homemade fly spray. Nails across the back wall will be perfect for bridles, halters, spare cinches and other tack that hangs fairly flat. Each horse's tack will hang together except for the saddles. The saddles will share a wall since they take up a lot more space and hang a lot deeper.

 We are looking forward to finding just the right place for each item so we can find it and use it at the appropriate time.

 Make a comment and let us know what you do to prepare for the snow! We'd love to hear your ideas, what works, and what doesn't.
