Berrymans in Kentucky

Bill and Kathy came to visit. They drove down from PA after visiting Bill’s family.

DSCF5243Andy showed up with dirty hands so he cut the notches in the stretcher posts.

DSCF5244Bill engineering the installation of the next ten posts. He’s good at this sort of thing. It would have been nice to have him around when we were installing the other posts. I’m sure they would have lined up better.

DSCF5248Bill had a good idea for making sure the posts are aligned. It has something to do with the little yellow flag thingies. We dug the holes today. Tomorrow will set the posts and he’ll show us how the little yellow flag thingies work.
