Fencing

Penny tells me it's still to cold to walk for more than a half hour at a time.

I agree with her. She may be stubborn but I'm tired. Mostly I'm tired of worrying about who's going to yell at me next about my dog's mad jumping skills. I'm pretty sure my wacko neighbors are just jealous that she can jump nearly three times her height. I mean, dude-- who doesn't want to be able to jump three times their height?? If I could jump 15 feet, I would jump onto ceiling fans and throw popcorn at people from above. Then again, many of my neighbs just suck-- Eaganites seem to think my angel and her mad jumping skills are potentially dangerous. The only way to totally, 100% alleviate these worries and the neighbor's suckiness is through... Fencing.

Today I went fencing. I started by measuring the perimeter of my yard. My fits the shape of a quadrilateral. It has four sides, none of with run parallel nor have the same length. I spent the morning trying to draw a scale images of my yard. This was not an easy task, so I settled for 'close enough.' (see image and hold a mirror to it to decipher my code) http://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gif

I took my measurements to my local HD. There I priced out a number of wooden and vinyl options. Looks like wooden fences will run 2-4 thousand, where vinyl will run 3-6 thousand. I'm not picky-- I just want 6 feet of non-see-through material that will block out my yuck-ball neighbors and allow my babies to run freely but not jump freely.

Now we have decisions to make... oh ... we also have to wait for the winter to leave--


One more thing... Boof blew yesterday.
