Our backyard is great. It really is, lots of trees and shade, enough space for volleyball or running around with the dog, a garden, everything we could want - except a fence that would keep our chickens in!
Once we got the tree trimming company to tidy up a whole bunch of odd and random plants and bits, it exposed that many of them were holding up a part of the fence. The asbestos fence.
So we slowly and surely worked through the steps to replace it. Dustin removed the asbestos and disposed of it, we had some lovely friends come down and help pour the concrete into the post holes and then we finally put up the fence itself a few weeks ago. Or maybe a month ago? I am losing track of time haha.
Here are some before and during photos... it's night time now and I realize I didn't have any "after" shots of the fence so hope to post some later!
So this is what we got ourselves into:

It was pretty thickly growing!
Here are some of the concrete pour photos:
Since we had the concrete truck there, we did decide to add a few other things...
Like a fire pit:
And a bit of driveway (we always park one car on the grass and it was getting pretty mucky by the edge during the winter):
And this is just one of the exciting ways we spent our summer!
