Gate Expectations

It's taken nearly a year but we have our gate up in the driveway! It was always so awkward trying to get the wire to hook over the post especially in the dark. It's so good to have a replacement. I think it looks pretty stylish, actually, and this picture doesn't do it justice. I still have to get out of the car to open the gate - we don't actually have a closing on it yet and are just using a bungee cord so the next step for me is to see if we can get an automatic opener. That might be beyond these gate expectations but it's great to have this improvement. Dave's getting to be a pretty fine woodworker don't you think?
