Beginnings of a thing.

My neighbors have been wanting a new fence, something we’ve been kicking around for a year or so. They eventually proposed a timeline. I explained that the money was not there for me, and I’d rather do it myself and split materials. Well, he was SO happy with the suggestion, he offered to pay for *all* the materials. Oh crap, bluff called and improved.

I took today off (requested it a while ago, perfect timing because I’m burnt out) and began removal of the old fence.

Now trying to find lumber... Every place is picked clean. In the meantime we’ll put up the hangers and 2x4s... About 130 pickets short 🙃

Lots of compliments on the pickup at Dunn Lumber, as usual.
