Broken Fence

Grateful I was not working in this spot when the limb fell.  It did stick into the ground so it would have damaged a human.  We were lucky it only damaged the fence.  It also knocked my horseshoes off!  Repaired again (not pictured) with the grass trimmed...just like new/old.

It Ain't Junk

I decided this would be my cool day project after push mowing through the morning. Dad fenced the yard to keep the livestock out.  After many years sections are gone but I like to keep pieces of what was.  

I began to tear it down before my before pictures.  I had to tackle all the honeysuckle and Virginia creeper while I was working on the fence.

Dad and Mom built three rails of split posts.  There were two large gates in other spots and one walk in swinging gate here.

I decided to try and reinforce and straighten the posts while doing only two rails since it is only "decorative" now.
