Stretching Wire

We got the first roll of fence wire stretched this weekend. It was a lot of work, we had to use the come-a-long at every curve break instead of the tractor stretcher. The curve on this side of the driveway is concave and we were inside the radius so we couldn't position the tractor to use the attachment.

 It rained the other day and we got a double rainbow.

 The unroller/stretcher. It was just an unroller this time.

 My straw hat is getting worn out.

 The ratchet is on the bumper of the truck. Lisa is getting ready to put in the staples.

 We both hammered staples all the way down.

 We just kept re-positioning the truck and setting the stretcher.

 Thirty-two posts.

  3. Fence looks great! I know you're glad it's done. What are you going to do next?! Besides taking care of all the animals!
