just got a phone call from the lady where i keep the cars for winter. the roof collapsed from the snow. wish i knew how to post pics cause because the sight is unreal.
the barn fits about 8 cars, 4 deep side by side. the left side of the barn collapsed squishing a 68 couger conv., 69 dodge charger(my old car sold to my dad to buy house), 74 camaro lt with 19,xxx original miles, and a 06 honda goldwing with side car. the right side had a boat in the back thats a full of debri so don't know whats broken yet, 72 vette looks like 1 rafter cracked a t-top and scratched up the hood preety good and my car only got 1 small scratch where the r rear meats the bumper cover. all and all i was 1 lucky man

Thats funny. Barn collapses but my outside 2 car port stands just fine still. It had about 3' of snow/ice on it till last monday(when I finally took it off) and didn't collapse. It dropped about 1' but never let go. This car port is probly the strongest one on earth. Thought for sure it was going.

i plow the ladys driveway but she got over 40 acres so i can't see the barn from the driveway, but at 84 she walks the property line in all that snow to check for trespassers and noticed 1 side of the barn was down and called me. she felt awful cause her insurance didn't cover any contents in the building
