There are some additional details to attend to, but hardest part is finally complete. I am beyond sore and extremely tired; however, I fell asleep too early in the evening (napped, really), now I'm awake and annoyed with myself.
The only remedy for this state of affairs is a good book.
The photo illustrates that we couldn't make up our minds whether to pound the fence posts into the ground (Method 1), or use an auger to drill holes and pour concrete to fix the posts (Method 2).
So we took a chain saw and shaved off a bit of each post, anticipating that, yeah, Method 1 was the way to go. However, when it became clear that we were not going to be able to obtain the necessary equipment (an apparently Herculean task) to have a go at Method 1, we decided we liked Method 2 better anyway. Hence the pointy posts turned upside-down in the post holes, and a paddock that is somewhat reminiscent of a medieval encampment, surrounded by pikes.
Anything potentially dangerous to the horses will be removed before they even lay eyes on their new digs. Safety first!
(More art to come, btw...I've been gourding, and two new drawings are in the works. Studio time - tomorrow, absolutely, even if I have to drag myself up there, which seems rather likely.)
