Not a particularly riveting pic, but a significant one to be able to take today. I've gotten a couple requests to post pics of our long-awaited fence project. You see the posts waiting to receive their doses of Quickrete then water. You can see one of the installer guys down there relaxing and stretching on the playset I constructed this summer. The fence posts are extra tall because we are having them start the fence boards at the level of that low retaining wall. They'll cut off the extra length at the top of the posts of course.

It's been a real big spring and summer for us and our property.

Decided to jump in and get things done that we want instead of waiting years. New garage built, driveway widened and retaining wall built, playset erected, garden built, fence installed, and more. You can see the bamboo in the foreground that I went and dug out of someone's yard for free (they offered it online on "nextdoor.") The grass beyond the little hill is all new from seed after I leveled and prepared the soil. MUCH work. I'm also digging the trench for electrical to be run out to the garage, and you can see that running up toward the house.

I will post several more pics showing the fence, as we are having black aluminum at the front of the yard, including a driveway gate. Also enclosing our garden in black aluminum.

And I'm actually surprised remi let her get so close. His ears were back the whole time and he hissed and ran under the couch, but 5 months later, I can definitely say this was progress!
