The fence project is off to a great start. So far I am really pleased with the quality of work being done by this company. I have been taking a lot of pictures and here are the highlights from day one.
The first step was they measured off approximately where each post would go based on the string line I had set for them. They dropped a post and a bag of concrete at each mark.

Now the fun part, they started digging each hole by hand.
Each hole was approximately 2 feet deep.
After they had an entire set of holes dug, they dropped in the posts.
They started by plumbing each corner post first, and then tied a string to each corner post. This string line was used to plumb the additional line posts in a perfect line.
How do I know it is a perfect line? Because it looks like one post from this angle straight on.
I stepped to the side and snapped a picture and you could see all the posts on this side have been set.

Thanks Carrie, it is amazing how excited one can get over just a fence. Ah, the simple pleasures in life.
