It's a little daunting to write a post after several month without one...and there is much progress to report on! I'll just group some projects together and try to keep catching up over the next few days. But starting with where we left off, we first tackled finishing the fence to completely enclose the backyard. Happily, the trees that we moved are still alive today and now our yard is dog-friendly!
 |
| Getting started with setting posts |
 |
| So many posts |
 |
| And skipping ahead - voila, a fence! |
 |
| From our side - all fenced in |
 |
| This was the tricky part - we had to build around a big tree near the property line |
 |
| So we built a custom frame |
 |
| And then custom cut the fence boards |
 |
| And now the fence goes up to, but not through, the tree. We did the same thing on the other side so the fence now goes right around the tree |
 |
| That left just a gate to build |
 |
| We adapted a steel frame kit for the big gate |
 |
| Getting the gate laid out |
 |
| And setting it up |
 |
| Skipping some steps to the final product |
 |
| A little trim work to be done but we are now fully fenced in |
 |
| And we immediately invited our friend's retriever Charlie over to enjoy the yard! |
