Our poor gate. It didn't stand a chance. :(
We removed all of the fence boards and the "no-climb" fence from the posts. Mark cleared all the debris from the area and we hung strands of electric tape. A much better design don't you think?
The debris was piled pretty high when we started. Thank goodness we have the skid steer. BTW...Mark bought new tires for it to thank it for all its hard work.
Thank goodness it didn't take out our new bridge. Phew!
Now THAT is a sexy look. Mark was preparing to get in the stream and remove more debris. He had to do it. I was busy taking pictures for you all. I know...the sacrifices I make. You're welcome.
Isn't he the cutest?
Unclogging under the bridge. Good job Mark! (I was on the sidelines...taking pictures and cheering him on...fanning him too.)
The finished product. This design is much better. Now if we have flooding issues, we can either unhook the three strands of electric tape and let the water flow freely, or we can just let it break. Either way a much better design. In a battle with mother nature, she will always win. So we think it's best to figure out ways to work with her. Works for me!
