We finally have down all the ugly, rotten fence, leaving ugly piles of dirt, old metal fence poles (presumably from an older chain link fence) and general ugliness. The removal was in 2 phases, because of the funny property lines here (nobody really knows what is whose) one set of neighbors removed the bulk of it in August and Steve did the rest yesterday.
We plan on adding something to close off the backyard (keep roaming children in), and add a gate between our garage and our neigbors to the rear who have 2 sons about our kids' ages.
If we get our act together, by the end of the summer we should have a small vegetable garden, a new fence along parts of the back and some sized-for-4 patio furniture.
Given our new neighbor to the side with boys age 2 1/2 and 5, I think the fight with the toys in the back will never be won! We do love the boys will have so many other boys to place with in adjacent yards. (All the parents seem like-minded too).
