Lazy G Ranch has been living up to its name for a while but we finally got a little work done the last two weekends. We installed some hooks on the garden shed to help tidy my fencing pieces that are used as trellises in the vegetable garden.
And we set LOTS of posts. Here I am digging holes for a gate.
The gate. This allows us to drive through the minis pen into the horse pasture.
The last gate was also for the mini pen. It will also open up to allow us to drive into the horse pasture but for right now we are using it to split the mini pen in half. My older mini, Spice, hasn't been doing well so he needs to be on a special diet and remain separate from Peanut.
The rest of the fence posts were set for another section of horse pasture fence.
Once all of the posts were set we rolled out the fence and used our fence stretcher to pull it tight.
Standing up the fence.
Finished fence! Now 3/4ths of the pasture is permanent fencing. We hope to finish the last quarter this winter.
In other news, we recently had to purchase a new garden tractor because our other one had a serious engine failure. We wanted a john deere and the one we found on craigslist even came with some spiffy flames. I'll be mowing the grass on a hot rod now!
Finally, we had a fox move into the den that a gopher tortoise dug a couple of years ago. The tortoise had been gone awhile and I had filled in the hole, but the fox decided that he wanted to live there I guess.
