Paint, trim, hinges, and cut the gate free. Works really smoothly and barely finished putting in the locking mechanism as a giant storm rolled in and nearly pulled the gates right out of my hands.

Took me a lot longer than a proper fencing guy would have but I'm really happy with the end result.
dude, you're giving me an OCD flare up! the other two lengths of fence are different colors!!!

To the left is the neighbours, to the right is ALOT more fencing I need to replace, but the gate was my priority. Before winter hit I took the panels out and shoved the trailer into the back yard and put the fence back up. I wanted a proper gate in place so I could get the trailer in and out... and the old fence wasn't going to be able to handle it. The post that was in the middle was rotten right out.

I'll continue working on it just in smaller manageable sections. Need to keep a dog in the yard etc. And this already cost quite a bit... I won't get all of the fence done this year due to time and $ requirements.

EDIT:
~90m of really old fencing around the property... and that only accounted for ~7m

this is more funny than happy as I'm ambivalent about what I got...but I subscribed to WIRED cause I got a year for $5.00 or something. I just received a manila envelope with a sheet of stickers with robot people, dogs, phones and jazz. what the heck? LoL!

Both AMD & Nvidia have driver releases for it.

Ready for the game here. I watched some generic advice videos so I don't have to backtrack too much on a build, but I am trying to go in with the beta experience only. It will be a slow and enjoyable trip. I'll watch the cut scenes, read the corny dialog, and just soak up the game.

It's raining here in Halifax this morning and that is very VERY good to see!

My niece had the evacuation rescinded for her area and her house didn't burn so we are thankful for that. She got back in last night. Another relative is still out but we're hoping this rain is enough and helps turn the tide. My place has been sitting in the emergency zone, but we didn't have to evacuate. We got ready for it, but it didn't happen so thankful for that as well.

And also very thankful and grateful for all the emergency personnel and firefighters who have been working non-stop. I personally know three firefighters involved, the level of effort is astounding, and can't thank them enough!
