Photos of the Fence Project

My husband got a lot of work done on the fence project this last weekend. All the wrought iron has to be cut into manageable sized pieces and then the posts that were set in cement have to come out. It’s pretty tedious work to say the least. Here are some pictures of the fence before we started this project…

You can see that it’s not high enough to pose much of an obstacle to Lucy. She can about clear it flat-footed. :-( Or maybe you can’t see that, since the pictures are posting really small for some reason tonight. Sorry!

You can also see the other “fixes” we’ve attempted to keep the smaller dogs from just walking through the spaces in the fence. I’m not going to be sad to never have to try to keep chicken wire up and attached to a fence again.

Here is what the yard looks like today…

You can see that he’s got the one side and the front completely cut and taken out, the temporary fence up, and he’s now finished cutting the remaining sides of the fence into pieces. Now we just have to take them out and break off all that darn cement. Bleh.

And some very unhappy dogs with their new “temporary yard”. It’s way too small for their liking. LOL They are hoping to have their old stomping grounds back as soon as possible.

  1. Wow! That is quite a project. Why doea it seem like once you buy a house there is always a project?

    Can’t wait to see the and result!

  2. Wow! This is a HUGE project!!!!! That’s just a ton of fencing to get out and then a ton of fencing to put in! It will be very nice when it’s done, but you need help!

    Your husband is amazing to take this on by himself! (With you of course!!)

  3. This really is a huge project. But that’s nothing new for my husband. He put in the wood floors throughout the house, re-tiled the bathroom, replaced the windows, re-shingled the house and put the log siding on all the buildings, not to mention replacing the cabinets in the kitchen and office…all on his own. He’s a really hard working guy! I’m really, really fortunate to have him. :-)

  4. boy is lucy going to be ticked the first time she cant get over that fence! And I can just picture twist now with just the tip of his nose sticking through the little hole going, “what the heck why doesn’t my body fit through?!?” Its going to look great and i know you will be soo glad to have it done! And the husband does get credit for being one hard working guy!
