Holy

Or is that "Holey"... The project began last Saturday. John & Co. came out and started dotting our backyard with fenceposts which eventually will house the beginning of our herd. He didn't hit rock, which is a very good thing. Here is one of the main pasture lines running down the side of the property (leaving room to drive down to the barn).


Here is the magic skid loader drilling holes for the garden fence.


Here the team installs post & rail by the driveway. This is part of the garden fence (has nothing to do with the alpaca pasture.)


Here are the fence posts being installed along the new front pasture.


Before the posts went in...it looked like this.

Our sons, Max and Dylan, did the backfilling. Yesterday, my new favorite store, Tractor Supply, delivered some, but not all, of the fence and gates. We are still short 200 feet of fence and 1 gate. I don't understand why it takes 2 weeks to get fence and gates, but you are pretty much at their mercy.
