[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1388177, member: 24027"] I'll try to remember to take a pic of one we had built a year or so ago. It's made of giant cement blocks that stack together so it's technically not considered a permanent structure (for tax purposes). All they did was dig/cement a base, stack the cement blocks & secure the roof. Keeps cool in the summer & warm in the winter when we throw down some straw. Does it pencil in? Probably not. But at least they do have shelter because there are very few trees in that pasture. The cows in the central pasture have the option of going to the barn, down in the draw or seeking shelter in the woods where there are lots of cedar trees. The west 80 just has a lot of woods but we provide straw bales for bedding & old shyt bales for wind protection. [/QUOTE]
