New Project - Fences Part One

While Lisa and I have been busy canning the crops from the Orchard Tin and George have been busy building fences from refurbished wood that came from the Orchard.  George had some raised beds in the orchard made several years ago but never really used them and decided to take apart the raised beds so that next year a lot of corn can be planted in the area where the beds are now.  (By the way, raccoons ate all the corn that was in the orchard except for one small area.  We picked the corn and ate it the other night.  We should have waited but we were concerned that if we did the raccoons would come back and get that.  At least we had a sampling of the corn).  Tim and George have been working on getting all the wood from the raised beds and have been using it in other projects.  The garage was built with the wood and now fences are being made.  At the top of George and Lisa's driveway is a cud-de-sac that is full of flowers.  Now it has a great fence around which will be serving two purposes.  One is to fence off the flowers and the other is for a future project that I will be involved in a little bit later.  We are also putting a fence along our driveway, just for curb appeal. That will be part two of this new project. Check back and see!
Roxie is doing great.  She spent a night at the vet, she was spayed, but is doing well and is now getting some life in her and showing some personality.  Roxie and Shadow have met and once Roxie is all healed we know they will become the best of friends and will have a great time together here at the farm.
