Dfence

Der Zaund

Some people just don't get the hint. We got tired of the ATV tracks. So we put up a fence to keep out the unwanted. Mooseboy and I finished just in time for Deer Season 2005. After it was up, I had to admit that there's just something about hogwire and 5 strands of barbed wire that says, "Thanks , ever so much for coming. Now, go way!" Granted, you could probably get through if you really wanted to, but this is not a fence you want to run an ATV into at 4 in the morning. After one weekend in place, I found fresh set of tire marks left from a pickup, peeling out in disgust. I've started planting multi-flora rose and hawthorn on the fenceline too. Let me tell you that this stuff is very effective. I accidentally ran over a small hawthorn sapling while I was out mowing last weekend, and got three flat tires. I'm also going to propagate some osage orange, and see if I can get that going.

Many thanks to all my buddies on the 24hourcampfire for helping me with the design. A special thanks to the Boggy Creek Ranger for pointing out some stupid first-timer mistakes that are now corrected.
