Today was our first real day doing stuff.  It was a looong day.  We managed to whack in 17 fence poles in a semi-straight fashion (there’s only a slight kink – not bad for a first go!)

So now it looks like this:

This is pilla beautifully modelling the new fence.  It’s very stylish:

So tomorrow we build the rails that go between them and maybe the pickets.  We need to figure out a way to borrow someone electricty though. 

I also now sport one great big blister – hopefully that should be it for hard work for a while.

Tomorrow’s jobs:

Cut, sand and install rails.

Cut and maybe sand pickets.

Chop the top off the fence posts to make them even.

Celebrate our sucess with a beer 🙂
