Fencing Begins

Over the past few days, the crew has laid out the fence location, drilled holes, laid posts, and all kinds of other technical terms that I don't know. Nick also painted the column tops so they wouldn't look so ridiculous.
Here's Bam, who's a welcome addition to the crew, working away on my side fence. It's awesome when you like the people working on your house - makes it that much more enjoyable, I tell ya!
It's hard to see, but the side fence posts are in. All that awaits is corrugated metal.
Here's the posts for the other side of the house. This posed some debate for me, trying to determine how much privacy/visibility/security I actually wanted. It would be great to have this be a really low fence, but I think the smarter choice is to go taller & safer. Nick & Bam got to experience "change-my-mind-mid-project" Erin today. (Sorry guys!)
Meanwhile, I'm really excited about the back fence & gate. As much as I LOVE people parking in my yard... it will be nice to have privacy & protection.
AND... once the gates are in, dogs can play! YAY!!! :)
