Planning

New Plans are in the works.  We are planning to build a modest horse barn on our property this year.  Big question - Where to put it??  My initial thought was to put it at the north west corner of the current mowed portion of our lot.  the big issue with that is the lack of access to that portion of the property 6 months out of the year. 

some things to consider -
1. the wet area at the front of the property
2. the back half of our property will be planted this spring with grapes for the beginnings of a vineyard. 
3. direction of the prevailing winds
4. would like to keep the barn as close to the front (south) of the property as possible
5. would like to take advantage of the windbreak the ROW will provide.

I will gladly accept any advice anyone is willing to give.
