Things that go bump in the night

[freakofnature]

OK, this is weird. It started last night. Every now and then there will be this huge BUMP coming from the roof of the barn where I'm working. I have no idea what it is. It's been around -30C here so maybe it's the cold and things are shifting. :dunno I joked on Facebook last night that it was aliens.

OOOH, sounds scawy.

 

[freakofnature]

Doesn't help that I watched Alien yesterday and Aliens today.




S'ok though. I'm not really nervous. If there IS anything out there I have my Swiss Army knife on me. :cool Besides, it's really too cold for anything to be alive out there right now.

 

[Grimousetie]

Okay. =)

If it's a tin roof, I guess it could just be creaking. I really don't know anything about your roof though lol.

In the barn? There are animals inside = lotsa body heat. And usually barns are not extremely well isolated so the temperature difference might be getting to the material of the roof.

It doesn't sound like creaking, that's the thing. From the lunch room it sounds like something has hit the roof. (The roof is tin.) I was down in the barn a little while ago when it did it and I actually think it's coming from the doors. They're overhead doors, like garage doors. I think Leah's probably right. It's the temperature difference. It's -43C outside right now. :surrender I ran down to the other barn to look in on the mares and my boogers froze in a few breaths. :ninja

Zirc when it's that cold all sorts of things happen to wooden buildings. I've seen it where nails popped back out and they sound like gunfire when they do.

 

[freakofnature]

Yes, I'm sure you're right. I find it's much more fun to blame the aliens, though. I saw a funky light in the sky when I was wandering down to the mare barn before. It may have been Venus...or it may not have been. :humm: :ninja

You seem to be very obssessed with the rust in my hair. :humm:

 

[AUFred]

Cold makes my joints creak. I can imagine your barn is responding to the temperatures.

if you would prefer i can refrain from public comment about your hair

not just her barn, but her brain

 

[RedRyder]

Zirc.... I'd blame it on the weather for sure. My house does it when it gets really really really cold.

Snow falling from the roof maybe?
