Clearing Old Fence Rows

The day looked rainy but it did clear off.
Time for some fence row clearing.
This is the end of Dad's old garden where he had built two fences high to prevent the deer from eating the garden.  Years of growth and wear meant it was time to push it out and open up the view a little.
This is now the orchard with a stream beside it.
The work sure is easy with the right equipment.
Would have taken us months with hand tools.

When we bought this place it was an old dairy fram. I stress the word old! We spent years cleaning out old fence rows like this.
