Go ahead - fence us in

Yesterday, we got a new fence along the back and one side of our yard. Lucky for us, the neighbors will share the cost. Here is some of the prep work.
This is the back of the yard. We chose a taller fence than we had before.
We had extra brick and stone from the house, and our builder had some workers stack it neatly in the back corner of the yard. Where it was directly in the way of the fence guys. So hubby and I got our gloves and moved about a half pallet of brick, along with the stone, about 3 or 4 feet. In the picture below, you can see the pallet it used to be on. We moved those bricks, two by two, into the pile on the right. Those of you who go to the gym - here's a new workout for the whole body: Go out in the hot sun, move a bunch of bricks and stone, and stack them out of the way so somebody can access the area they need. Woof! We lost a couple pounds of sweat on that job.

Here's the finished fence - nice!

God bless those workers who are out in our hot weather every day. They have built us a lovely new home, and we are moving tomorrow!

We'll be off the blog for a few days until we can unpack, and get our internet connection going again.
