I have always hated fences, and still do. I now hate building them too. I decided last winter to put up a barbed wire fence to keep out the locals on four wheelers which in fact took me most of the winter to build (a day here and weekend there). This month I finally built a gate for the corner. It was one spot the local poachers used to sit and shoot at deer and pigs from. They will have a much harder time now as their view and access is obstructed. I don't have to make it easy for them anyway, do I? Now I have to spend a lot of time maintaining the fence too.

From the time I have started reading the articles you have been posting, I have become very keen in learning more and more. Now I can proudly say that I know little and that too thanks to you!!!
