About 5-6 years ago there were some varmints getting into the barn. Digging under the walls to get in. First it was a skunk, then a badger, then ground hogs. We ripped a side walk out by mom and dad's house so dad wanted the broken remains put along the sides and back of the barn. There have been no more issues since. I'm wanting to remove it all and add a lean too on this side so the horses have another venue to get out of the wind. In due time I guess. :LOL:
