Fence 1: Pure Privacy. Roughly three years ago my East neighbor installed a lovely constructed privacy fence that stands 10-ft tall at the furthest edge.  Fence 2: Lovely Lattice. The exquisite 7-ft lattice number was installed by your’s truly along with my pop. The fence was constructed about 9 years ago and is still in fair condition.  Breaks my heart to part with the fence, but I need uniformity in the yard, so it must go. Fence 3: Ugly Chain-link. I’ve hated the sight of the chain-link for 14 years. The fence was installed by my West neighbor before I became a proud homeowner. Did I mention the great view of their rusted-out tool shed?

Not really a DIY project, the new fence installation begins.  Bye-bye chain-link and my lovely lattice. Both sections will be removed and replaced with a privacy board-on-board number matching the height of the East neighbor’s fence.
