I think you should convert it to a fur shed.
I got myself a seniors' GPS. Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.

you will like the shed , wood stays and gets so much dryer than any tarp I ever tried.
it looks 8 foot deep and each bay 8 foot wide that is a good size , the only thing I would have done different is pitch the roof from front to back because I think your going to want a 3rd and possibly a forth bay but you can always build a second
my shed is 2 bays 6 foot wide and 8 foot deep I wish it was 4 bays 8x8 but I don't have that kind of room.
did you anchor the skids to the ground ?
it is great to be filling the bay while still burning from the other but depending on how much wood you burn 3 or 4 bays may be needed to get enough time in the shed to get the moisture content down it also depends ont he wood if your burning a lot of Ash then you will likely be fine it doesn't take long once split and under cover to be under 15%
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

I like it but if you're stacking side to side, I'd be worried about outward force on the walls in the front. There is no support down low. I'd expect firewood to push those legs out.

there will be pallets on floor so wood is up off of ground Keep an eye out for the heavy duty plastic pallets and they will support the weight, and aid in ground water evaporation, no mouldy wood on the bottom layers. Don't use the plastic ones with just the bubbles on the bottom for the fork lift to lift cause they sink into the ground with the weight on top. Buddy made some mini ones out of pallets so he could forklift a load on a pallet to his backdoor. Each one had a tin roof, and they were stacked two high in the sheds .36 cu feet of backdoor firewood and no snow drifts to fight in your slippers @40 below.
