At Jazmin's request, on Mother's Day, we began taking down 3/5's of the fence in our side yard. There was no marching or trumpet blowing but the wall still came down. The hardest part of this is moving the gate from opening West to parallel to the house opening north. We left the back of the fence up to border the woods. (Our next door neighbor found a 3.5' to 4' snake across her front door.) We found 2 snakes in the fence demolition process.
Fence demolition process - favorite tool - Craftsman Reciprocating saw (thanks Dad). The whole fence was down in 2 hours. Digging out the post was a different story. In the end, the fence and gate I put up is 99.5% recycled, we have enough cedar for the fireplace for the whole summer.
Well. Sunday, a week later, and we are 100% done and the gate actually works. Now we have to grow some grass!
