Fences

We recently had a property survey in preparation for the first big project of the summer. We're finally putting up a fence.

 This way Elli can run free, we can grow berries up the fence and we'll get a bit (more) privacy.

 We decided against metal in favor of wood posts with deer fencing. It fits the surroundings and almost disappears into the hillside.

Part of the fence project includes hanging out our driveway gate from funky chainlink to a nicer wood/metal gate. We're moving the gate closer to the street to give us more room in the front.

We found a local shop that welds frames for super reasonable prices and to save $$, we'll be installing and finishing the gate ourselves.

This (now funky) area will be enclosed:

 C's already started the hardest part and spent 3 days digging a massive 4 ft. hole, by hand.

ps- today is our 3 year anniversary as homeowners!
