Teresa & Mike CHS - Our journal

[Mike CHS]

We are forced to follow the terrain because of rock but we are turning a curved pasture edge into a straight line. We are going to wind up with more "yard" than we wanted but portable fence can be used once a week or so to let them into the yard for grazing.

That has been a Blessing to me...not having to deal with rock, for sure. When I would get wore down, I always thought about you and Bruce and told myself to "Shut-Up" that I didn't have Anything to *itch about....

With 350' done, that is 50' more than planned on isn't it? The young ones must have been energetic...

I like that, @CntryBoy777
To *itch or not to *itch, that is the question.
I used to be on our county 911 radio back in the day, and so I would just refer to it as squelching about something. Pretty similar I guess. ☺

We got another 350' of wire put up today. I know I'm going to like all of these gates someday but right now they are just big time users.

So true. Pulling the fence and clipping is actually pretty easy. Takes a month of Sundays to wrap each wire around the post and back to itself in the fence line. Especially those heavier gauge top and bottom ones.

Oh... you're supposed to clip the bottom ones too?

So true

Hate those bottom wires!

This is one of the best tools on the market (In my experience) for the wire & T clip twisting-

 

[Mike CHS]

We have that one and it does work. I saw the new kind of clips and the tool that goes with it that greybeard (I think) posted awhile back but they are pricey.

Glad I haven't started that yet....but Will.
I just love learning new stuff hanging around y'all....well, actually the "Right Way" of doing things, but haven't experienced the "Doing Right" yet.

Fred - I haven't done fencing on this scale since I was in my teens and if I knew anything then I have forgotten it.

We are re-learning but it all boils down to one post at a time but I think you already know that.
