Construction Progress

Yesterday I took a little break from the studio because A: It was nice outside (not snowing, raining, or -15 degrees), B: Brian had the day off work. C. Maggie was available.... all that together spells 'Fence Building'!  We started around noon and got all of the main area around the shed put up.  Maggie took a few pics with her iPhone... all that is left is the sheet metal on the shed, the two gates, and to string up the electric wire and hook up the energizer.  THEN the llamas! :)

 'Creative' fence building right here... 

 Getting closer!  This was the last long stretch, then two little pieces and..... 

Done!

For the record... we're not professional fence builders, BUT we are fearless do-it-yourselfers.  This was done with the fencing that Maggie and I got for free back in August, a rented post hole digger, 100 foot measuring tape, and a vintage metal post hole driver.  They're not perfectly straight, but I think it looks really nice.  I hope the llamas like it. :)
