I've purposely refrained from posting updates on our newfound project in an effort not to bore the reader with incessant photos of nature;
repeated stories of the GilGuy bush-hogging ground whilst I walked around in circles;
and the ever present challenge of having to wash the DellDog after each and every visit to the property. :)
However, it is high time to share the latest and greatest happenings 'round these parts. I'll begin with today's victory first: Houston, we have a fence.
Well, *almost*.
We began the fence today after an arduous procedure of preparatory steps. I am not exaggerating when I say it took us three hours to get supplies to the appointed place, and well over two hours to seat the first 200 lb rail road tie into the ground.
~ But from there on out? It was like taking candy from a baby. Slicing butter with a hot knife. Let's see that again:
That was, of course, until I lost the keys to the truck.
Yeah.
Ah well. We have reason to celebrate, and we are! :D
Here are a few shots from today's endeavor:
If today brought lesson in any thing beyond How To Stick A RailRoad Tie In The Ground, it was How To Work Together To Accomplish A Decided Goal.
His ideas, my ideas . . . rarely congruent in the nuts and bolts of 'how-to' even when we both agree on the outcome. So, it was give and take, Try Mine, Try Yours today. Thus, I've entitled this last photo a pertinent title.
In honor of working together to figure it out, I submit: Glove Love
Let's all get along, shall we, Choosers? :D
