- My neighbor was surprised when she was fencing her back yard and was short on money when I paid half the cost of the fence on my side. I wanted to keep her dogs in too and to keep the kids dog in when it came over.
Doing your share with you neighbor pays pretty good rewards most of the time.

- Hi Harry and crew,
I wanted to comment on your recent piece on fences. On the install factor you didn't address reason for having it install by a fence company other than the expense of it. But let me ask you do you feel your family time or back and body justify the expense? yes or no and that would address wether it expensive or not. Also there are other ways like actual fence companies vs the big box companies to get your fence from. Many of these are "family owned" companies. Had wished you showed the many side of a fence than just the one you did - Reply to this comment
