Fencing News

Yesterday we set 9 wooden line posts, 12 tee posts and 90 yards of fence across the east pasture. For each line post we used the power auger (the Earthquake) to bore a three foot hole, finishing it off with a shovel and post hole diggers. For each tee post I became a human pile driver, using a tee post hammer. 25 strokes each.

We set 47 inch cattle fence, and the stretching itself was done with a manual come-along from the south corder post.

We started at 8:30 am and ended at 8:30 pm. But it's done - we took advantage of the beautiful weather. Next weekend, more fencing. And maybe I'll mow the yard. Maybe.
