Someone asked, so here they are. Just looks like fence to me! Working by myself, I was proud to finish before the hot summer got here. The hardest/longest part was digging the 12 holes in the mostly rocky soil. The little PHD Auger I have worked ok on some of the holes. It is 1.6 acres which would be about 280 ft x 250 ft. I was tired of having to "get lucky" to catch them all. It worked pretty good Sunday when I caught the entire 25 cows, bull, and calves.
Old front gate...truck is coming out of the pasture (and catch pen) Some day I will be removing that old mesquite tree and put another gate there to make it a double gate at the entrance.

The North fence (looking west)...double gates dont meet... will fix that later..... too hard to make it right when pouring concrete by myself.

A wild heifer bent this gate back in the 90's when I first built the corral.
