Well, as of yesterday morning, our west side of the fence out back is fully replaced (although on the second half, the fence posts were not planted as uniformly for height as they were for the first half ... that's what happens when people try to rush things and I wasn't supervising!), and we even had a single panel left over to put up on the back fence on the western corner, as that part had about half of the fence boards kicked out by vandal teenagers.
Hopefully this new fence will last for a long time and not be ruined by either the folks passing through the alley, or the blackberries from next door. I vow to be very dedicated to making sure blackberries and morning glory do not take hold on my side again, and will have to go into the vacant lot from time to time to cut back on that side, I guess, to keep the fence safe.
Next project is the garden, getting it levelled, pulling out the stunted apple tree, and getting the raised beds set up, then after that's on the go and I can start getting plants actually into the ground, we'll get the pavilion set up out back as well.
Lots of plans for work still to be done ... but not much time to do it with our schedules as we only have one day off together on our weekends in May (and that one day being one on which Maxx gets off work at 7am that morning, so it usually winds up being a very short day together), and we don't have any time off together in June.
