After The Windstorm

The windstorm I previously posted about really did a job on two of our fences in the backyard.

We dealt with insurance adjusters (a disappointing outcome) and neighbors, and received a partial reimbursement from both. There's still one neighbor we probably won't get any help from, but what's done is done.

The contractor we hired did a fantastic job, we're so happy with his work. It's a relief after having shelled out thousands to realize we got what we paid for, beautifully well-built fencing that will be around for at least 30 or 40 years. The guy even threw in a little gate we've been wanting ever since we've lived here! Made from scraps, it blocks off the larger portion of our backyard from the area between the back porch and the little house. It's perfect for when we don't want the dogs back there.

That's Oliver's little behind.
It looks like spring has sprung here in the last few days, yay! I'm so grateful for all the rain we had this winter, but I'm also thankful we can now enjoy the sunshine.
