So jealous. Great job Jim.
Thanks. My intent is to open up my process for comments and suggestions. I've never done anything like this but am just using logic to work thru issues.So jealous. Great job Jim.
Is that your property to the right? Are you putting any type of high fencing in to keep people out, for insurance reasons?
Yes, that is what I call my upper pasture. The orchard, which is hard to see, is further to the right, as you look up the hill. Our house is on top of the hill, looking down on all this stuff. I live way in the country, down a dead end lane, so I'm not real concerned about strangers walking onto my property. Also, none of this part of my property can be seen from the road. Out in the country, we don't use high fencing to keep out people. We have guns for that.
That fencing you see is just coated wire horse fencing, to control horse access... not people. Now the orchard has 8' tall fencing to keep deer out. I am putting up a run of fencing, next to the berm, to keep horses (and cows) off of the levee & spillway and to keep them out of the corner to the left. That corner of the pond will be isolated from the cows & horses and we will soon be putting in a small dock & pavilion there. That fencing actually goes down into the bottom of the pond.
FYI, this bottom pasture is normally used by my horses only in the winter. During the summer, I let my neighbor put his cows in there. Helps him and keeps me from cutting that pasture.
Thanks.Lol. I am major jelly. There isn't an emoticon to show just how jelly. Not only of the range but of the steel as well. Very tidy setup.

+1..... I want one
I'd be thrilled just to be Jim's "down the road" neighbor & sometime shooting buddy.
