North 40 Frame Shop

Val manages the North 40 Frame Shop, but she has to take off March and April to be on the ranch fulltime during calving season. Cassandra asked me to work for her while she's gone, so I've been apprenticing since I arrived in mid-January. It's really fun learning a new craft and it's given me a chance to meet more of the local folks. The only part I don't like is going out to the unheated 'chop shed' to cut frames when the temperature is near zero.
