Thanks, Gary. Unfortunately my Gulfstream is at the mechanics again. That's what happens when you shift gears into reverse at 60,000 ft. One of these days, I'm actually going to pop open that manual.
Damn ... I really need to get that fence fixed.
Sorry. But I think I didn't have anything to do with that. When did you say it happened?
Over the past ten years. A tree trunk has grown through the fence ... time to cut and repair. The fence is very very old and most of the vertical support structures (posts, lol) are rotted at the base. I've installed a new post system to support the fence, connecting the fence to the new posts via 3/8" steel rods. I've laced the new posts with 1/8" steel rope for the grapes. The tree problem is on a steep retaining wall portion of the property, so the fencing materials needs to be of various lengths. I should install one more post in the retaining wall area, but I ran out of concrete.
I figured after your coffee, you could demo and repair ... then we'd go to lunch.
