This spot has been on my mind since the deer party we had a few weeks ago. I used it for a fence post at The Run*A*Ranch. I was ashamed the fence was not visible but it was doing its job.
For years this second "gate" beside the cattle guard could be opened to accommodate a wide load.
The school bus kept hitting it and other tragedies happened to this poor gate but it still kept the stock from wandering.
Not a Fortune Five Hundred fix but it's up again!
Maybe this sign can now be seen and obeyed.
Around here I can measure my work only by the piles of brush...and that creates another job. The green is arriving in full force. One small job, one giant backache but I am grateful.

poor battered gate - takes a licking but keeps on getting up. :)
Gail, that gate has definitely seen it's better day, and what a job to get it back in place! Good job!
Isn't that the truth!? I can so relate to one spot/step at a time, and even a completed job creates another one. That is my life sister! It sure looks better though. Don't feel bad, everything around our place has character! :)
Thanks so much for your comment on my blog Gail - I think he's pretty magnificent too!! :)
Love its rustic look. It may all be a lot of work, but many look at your life style with envy, from the view of the rat pack side of the world. ;)
Een thought the gate is rusty and well worn,it is up adnworking again!
But they are beautiful things of life!!
Poor gate has taking a beating.. Glad it is back in its place. Great fence photos. Have a happy day!
One spot at a time...it is worth the effort.
Hope your back feels better soon.

You sure did well with that gate ...
This surely is the time of year for the colour green to Spring everywhere.
All the best Jan
Jolly good fix on that gate! The signs stand out and full clear force too! Good luck! Don't work too hard!
Sounds like you did some hard work but the effort paid off. Hopefully people will follow your sign now.
Well, all the effort and the gate job is done, now on to the piles of debris. Job security, it never ends.
A good job well done :)

Good job! There's always lots to do around the farm- you are one hard worker..I need to get off my duff before the weeds get out of control.
It's so GREEN out your way....lovely.
Head down and one step at a time. Keep that back healthy.
Great advice, exactly how I have been handling my spring jobs and clean up . . .
