Well, here's the update on the dogs getting more room to roam. Tim and I spent hours Monday getting a total of 800 square feet fenced in for the dogs. We used or existing kennel panels, outside house walls, plus fifty feet of some four foot fencing from Dad. Well, it turned out great and Tim and I stood back and admired the heck out of it. "If Tipper can get out of that, then she deserves to be out!"
Well, guess what, she climbed right over it!!!!! Tim's comment after watching her climb the fence was, "she was so graceful and did it with no effort." Go figure.
I just spent the last hour (Tim is teaching tonight)adding another three feet to the top of the existing 50 feet; for a total of an eight foot high fence. If she can climb it now, she will soon be greeted with the wrath of electricity. (only a 9 volt shock) Now I have to go fix my tattered nails.
Well, the rest of the day was good. My classroom got pretty hot and I'm glad the year is almost over. Tim had the day off because of his flex days. He did lots of housework and of course chased the dog through the woods; twice.
