Making do and making organized

While on my summer vacation I went up to Conrad and Brady, Montana, where I'm related to a sizable chunk of the population. At my cousins' farm I took some photos that illustrate how even when you have all the space in the world, you still have to organize in order to find stuff, and reusing things is a way of life.

Cubbyholes built in to the back wall of the garage contain small parts.

Old fence poles make perfect fireplace logs.
