Just what I needed to see as we are staring down a storm that may dump two feet of snow on us tomorrow and Saturday.
Beautiful. |

| I'm not really sure what you mean by bark fence? You get bark pieces big enough to make fences out of them? Phil |

Phil,
Yup, you can see them. My wife and one of her sisters strung 'em together with cheap wire (back when it was cheap) twisted around and between the strips of shucked bark from a dying tree. hh |

hope this is okay, re: bark fences
The local regiment/reinactment group uses what we call long pieces of slab wood to make fences. It is the outside of the tree complete with the bark that is cut off at the mill to make the wood square, usually four pieces from one tree/log. It surrounds their camping area and sets the area off from its surroundings. Maybe more historical correct? Would be easy to do if you know someone close with a mill or a portable mill that a lot of guys have nowadays. Would look okay around a garden. Would be easier than pieces of bark. Betty |

| Literally. I though the bark fence would be a dog run. I like the bark fence...and the hosta too! |

| I really like the rustic bark fence. It looks so natural in the wood setting. What is the large hosta in the front of the picture? |
