Fenced in

Tuesday, April 29, 2008

Obviously, it has been some time since I last posted. I thought I would put together a quick entry to show one the projects I have been working on. Left side of houseIt is not programming project; but a home improvement project. After driving all around the neighborhood and researching online, I finally decided what kind of fence I wanted to build along the sides of my house. I really liked the idea of cedar. It is durable, it smells good and it is naturally resistant to insects.

Right side of houseI also didn't really want knots. They are not horrible, but given the choice I preferred to get boards without. While I like the idea of a privacy fence I did not want a 6 or 8 foot fence blocking all of the light that comes in my yard. I decided on a 4 foot fence with decorative caps. I also chose to accent the top with fascia and a cap along the top. The pictures here really don't do the fence justice. I am very proud of it and can now keep the dog in the back yard.
