It's Fence Building Day!

We started the fence before Michael went away for his annual fishing trip on the Coast. He has done an incredible job of measuring the grade and figuring out where the posts need to go to make it straight~very precise!

It looks wonderful, but we just need to finish off a few things including the Pergola entrance and the left side will be done! I can start putting in a real Rose Garden, once it is protected from the wonderful deer and elk which roam in the area.

I purchased a wonderful book on Roses ~ and slowly I will start gathering my collection of Florabunda, Wild, Grandifloria, Tea, Damask, English, and my favorite ~ the Moss Rose.

The beauty of the rose is not just the wonderful scent, the richness of the color and delicateness of the petals, but the rich history it represents over the centuries.
