The fence is approximately 65 lineal metres. It has 200mm x 200mm x 1.2m Mortised Posts and the rails are 200mm x 50mm. We have Kiwi made double galvanised steel gates to allow access for wide and heavy vehicles.
The only thing left to do now is to stain the fencing. It's been advised that we wait at least a week before staining it as it dry enough. The timber came from Queensland.
We will wait two weeks and research the best method of staining, ie. Oil vs Water Based At least two coats will be required and that won't be an easy task.

| Half of our fencing looking North |
 |
| The other half of our fencing looking South |
 |
| So wide, it's difficult to get the whole lot in |
 |
| Standing back a little further. No traffic so no risk of being run over! |

| Mum and Dad observing the now cured Shed Slab and overwhelmed at the large rock and boulders which were excavated from the shed area. |
 |
| Standing almost at the rear of our property to take in the entire fence |
 |
| The old wheel barrow was hand-made by Dad some 50 years ago. It assisted with shifting some of the rocks some weeks ago but now has a flat tyre. The plan is to keep it and plant up something in it. Strawberries or flowers perhaps. |
 |
| Looking closer at some of the boulders excavated. These will come in handy around our future free-form tropical pool area. |

 |
| Water pooling in our shower base, but no, no Tadpoles .... |
 |
| Just established that the Slab surface is so perfect for Penny-boarding! |
 |
| Time to go and lock up the gates |
 |
| Happy with the fencing too |
 |
| Anxious to be living here but we have a house to sell first! |
