Why I haven't been working on the 104 (fence project)
 
I needed a place to let my dogs play but I have a odd corner lot so to fence the whole backyard it would be expensive and a huge project. This fence was also to give me me some privacy so can be outside without someone looking at me.

I am doing a 6' dog ear privacy fence on the side that borders my nieghbor to the south thos area is about 20x50. On the back of the house the fence is going to be a 4' picket fence. This is between the screen porch and the driveway. There will be a 48" gate on the 6' side and a 36" gate on the 4' side.

Currently I have all 16 - 36" post holes dug and 7 of the posts are set in concrete ( 2-1/2 to 3 60 lb bags per hole). I was only able to use a power auger on about 6 of the holes because of large cobbles about 18-24" down so this fence has a lot of sweat equity into it.

All the pickets are done on the 6' side all that's left over there is the gate. Also got the stringers up on the 4' side. Should be finished this week. Funny how a project the misses wants done takes 3 weeks while I'm 3 months into the 104
