All fenced in!

Posted on February 1, 2017March 20, 2025 By stega

Last summer we posted about the abysmal state of our fences, and how the previous owners had bartered with a nearby horse guy to allow his horses on the land in exchange for him doing some work, only for said work to stop as soon as we entered escrow. We were thus left with things like the south pasture fence consisting of just a single strand of barbed wire.

Thanks to our nearest neighbor, we found a proper fencing guy who helped us out considerably; our entire perimeter is now fenced properly. So instead of this sort of thing (first two pics), we now have this (last two pics).

There was only one snafu: the five cows pastured on our neighbor’s property, who were nowhere in sight when the crew left one area open in order to work on another for all of five minutes, used the opportunity to cross over to our pastures and in no time were all the way down near the wall that was being rebuilt. Thanks to the always-useful mini truck and Dino, we were able to herd them back to where they had crossed, but the fence had been completed by then. The crew arrived back in the house yard and saw the predicament, and it was a fairly easy job of just lifting up the still-unsecured fencing and ushering the cows back through it.

All in all money well spent, as in addition to proper fencing we also have two gates–one at the bottom of the south pasture where there were just boards nailed between two fence posts, and a smaller one up at our well tank.

Pretty awesome work. Soon we’re going to have the fence guy tackle the house yard fence–sorting out which boards are rotted out, replacing them and probably sanding and repainting everything.
