Fencing Part 2 - Closing in the Timeless Fence System!

Jonathan Longnecker / August 24, 2020

The last two weeks may be the hardest we've ever worked! As the fencing workshop came to a close, we had a sobering revelation: there was still about 2/3 left of this fence to build - and it was all up to us!

Fencing Part 1 - Clearing Lines and Setting Corner Posts

Ashley Longnecker / August 03, 2020

Last week we began clearing the line for our fence project and while we were really proud of how far we got, we still have so much to do. Turns out 6 acres is a lot to fence line to clear.

This week the sun has kicked our butts. it’s been exceptionally brutal with every day in the mid 90’s all the way up to 102 degrees and next to no wind. But despite the raging temperatures, we were able to push through and get more done. 

We have set all the corner posts and it went surprisingly fast! But let’s back up a bit. You may notice that these posts are black!

And they can really be destructive. So, needless to say, there’s been enough incidents since moving here that it’s high time we put up a fence!

After finally conquering our water pump situation, and deciding on a fence for our next big project (but waiting on materials to be delivered), we took the weekend off! Just kidding - we tackled a bunch of tiny jobs that have been driving us nuts for months :)

Building a Floating Deck for our Airstream

What is it about a deck that just makes a place feel more like home? I mean, we have the exact same amount of space, but somehow adding a deck makes your outdoor space feel more official and homey.
