Russwood Farmstead

Gates and insulators are now installed..yes!! Now onto the task of getting electric power across the gates so I can open them without interrupting the electric fence.
In the picture below you can see I have dug a trench from one side of the gate to the other. This will be for an underground wire to carry the power to the fence. Not the straightest trench I’ve dug, but hey -  I’ve learned that it’s easier to work with mother nature rather than against her… rock isn’t the most forgiving material plus I think it looks rather artistic, no?
