The yard fence is coming along nicely! Lucky for me, our nephew called and asked to come up this weekend. He is attending automotive school in Houston and wanted to visit. The husband told him he was working on the fence and the nephew offered to help. Silly boy! So that meant, I managed to get out of fence duty! Yippee!
They managed to get all the pipe set despite the extremely hot and humid weather. But they took water breaks frequently. Let's take a look...
What a pretty straight fence line! The husband had to fix a hole. He turned so y'all could see his good side. Yes, that was what he said!
The nephew pouring the quikrete mix. I think the husband had him hauling all the heavy stuff.
Gotta make sure everything is level.
You know what my favorite part of the entire fence building process is? The hot pink string line!
They did a great job.
Next up, the husband will saddle and cut the pipe for the top rail. Then the top rail will be welded in. Poor hubby, it's suppose to be well over 100 degrees this week!

You're going to love that fence. Great job!!
Hey, you should go to the Sunday stills site and leave a note: the challenge today was fences!
That will be a strong fence it looks like. Hubby sure has a good side. My man does too and after 44 years it still gives me a tingle to see it.
looks like it'll be a strong fence, also it's so straight! well done to the boys lol :)
Looks familiar, lol. We did this last week, when it was 115 out. I nearly died, I tell ya. We did a lot of work LATE at night, lol. It looks good though!! Tell hubby we know his pain, and his sweat, lol. Giving you a pat on the back, man :)
Very cool, a new one in progress is always cool..:-)
Great new fence !I could use one ,and its only 80 degrees here. (just sayin)lol
The most interesting fence, in progress. Cool work!:D A nice addition to this weeks challenge! Those dudes are strong! Its a piece of cake for them! ;)
YEAH!! I am so glad your Hubby is making progress on the fence!!! And big Kuddo's to the nephew for helping!! Always great to have another "man" to work with LOL!! Can't wait till he gets it done for you!
Wish I knew how to do all that stuff! Tell hubby he doesn't have a bad side.
Gotta love progress! Sometimes things like this seem to take FOREVER on our farm but I always try to see the progress! ;) Hope you have a great day. Stop over for a visit sometime.

How nice is that husband of yours to show us his good side???
MY husband does that on occasion as well :)
Why is pipe fence so popular in Tx? We never see that in Wi.
Nothin' so good as a husband getting projects done!
Nothin' like a hubby with a good side and a pretty pink string!
Guys like things dressed in PINK! Pink strings.. keeps their eyes on the job! Could be that's why your poles are sooo straight! :)
Hands down one of the hardest jobs Ive had in my life, was building fence at my house!
Oh and btw..Love your little dog....:)
So what do you have...like 100 dogs? So why the fence now?
By the way, nice job on the fence. Looks like hubby has done this before.
