"Stuck." That's what Daniel says when he encounters a gate he can't push open. (We decided to keep one side of chain link fence that adjoins our neighbor's very private and beautiful yard. To replace it would have meant trampling on her extensive and gorgeous landscaping — and besides, we didn't want to lose the view.)
The crew (plus Daniel and our nanny) pose next to the main front gate.
Next stop: The garden store! Now that we have a proper yard, we want to try to landscape the back section a little more.

It looks wonderful!
It does stink that the neighbor gets the nicer, prettier view of the fence.. Oh well.
I laughed when I read "stuck" Graycen uses that word so much. Anytime she can't get something, can't do something, can't reach something - it's always 'stuck'
The fence looks great! What a difference it makes. Have fun with the landscaping - Linder's flower mart at Rosedale has everything at 50% off so you can find some really good deals on nice plants. Happy planting!
It looks great -- what an oasis! I love the posts, too. Enjoy!

Oh, that looks fantastic. It really makes it so nice and private and secure for you all. Bravo! How nice to know that you can kick a ball around or even turn your back on the boys for a moment if you must.
Sounds like we should go to Linder's, too. Thanks, Andrea.

Oh yes, we were at Linder's today! And we'll probably be going back ...
What craftmanship!
Someone who puts their name on their work takes pride in what they do. How cool that you captured the team for your blog.
Have fun with the new view!

Wow, that is beautiful!
What a difference! It truly looks like an oasis now. ENJOY!
Awesome! I wish someone had told my neighbor about the ugly-side of the fence facing him. He did his backwards and we have the back side of it in our yard! Plus it's really old. I wonder what would happen if we painted the side facing us?
? Holy cow glad we don't have to fight them too. Yeah, I really like the 2nd one in the middle too. We might end up with different fences in different areas, ha.vinyl picket fence
