Finished the bottom of part 1 of the back fence

 The back fence is going to be in two parts, as I need to get that back corner post in before I can finish the back, and also work on the side.

Finished cutting through the fallen stump so I can get the fence through there, it was a chore, cut a wedge with the rip saw, block by block use a free screwdriver as a chisel, and get down to where I finished off with the bow saw, just had to get down to the rotten part, which that tree has been on the ground for quite some time, and evidently the ants didn't like oak.

Might have a baby pecan tree back in that corner, so I might try to do something with that at a later date.

As you can see here's the bush being trained along the wire, goal is to have the bush become the fence, so when the bush is along there, if someone comes up, they won't want to try walking through a tree.


See the little red flags, cut up a shirt that didn't fit, and added it to the wire.
Not sure if you can see, but between the posts I ran wire from the top and weaved it through the wire and the mesh fence.
This was a two day project, I was on this sucker until it was dark last week, and after about an hour of cutting, chipping, and then shoving the stump out to the street, it's out of the way for the bottom mesh.
This is the old corner post, it seems a bit off from where the other posts line up, but I'm just going to put a new one on the other side, an that's probably a 8 footer sunk into the ground a couple of feet, I think with the rain, and the wind, that's why it's leaning so bad, not going to remove it, just going to leave it.
It's straight this way, but it leans so far out, I can put the new fencing in behind it and it will line up.
