'De fence' Contractors at Work

There hasn't been any progress on our basement project because last weekend all the guys in the neighborhood were helping put up a fence next door. Dad has the most fence building experience (some liken our back yard to a 'compound' of sorts) so he had to be there to show everyone how to do it. He's also the biggest guy on the block so he got to man the post pounder!


Since we already have a fence on our side, and the lady behind Steve and Cindy's house has a fence around her yard, they only had to finish off the side between their house and Doug and Cynthia's house and the small gap between our fence and the corner of their house. The whole thing was done in one day, but then everyone was beat so we all just lazed around on Sunday.


Now Haley doesn't have to be tied to the deck anymore, and we've been having lots of fun running the fence line. Maybe Mom will get some pics of us today. It's nice and sunny outside and we're planning to host a cookout later this afternoon. We haven't been doing too much this weekend except relaxing, because Dad was gone away all week for some work training and Mom was hard at work on a bunch of magazine articles. We'll try to post a little more often now!
