Suburbanites build a fence

I'll be back.
I'm going out to buy plums.

Ooooh, what luscious plums.

What does Sassafras think of her new digs?

Sass seems to like the new space, but she's already foiled the electric fence, twice! I put an electric fence divider to keep her out of the side of the paddock where there are a ton of odd 'weeds' (I don't really know what the plant is, but it's super fast growing and I don't want her eating it to off-flavor our milk) and a big pile of old branches (to burn). Once we get the pile out of there, we may be able to let her have the whole place. She definitely prefers the freedom of not being tethered!

Here is a picture of Sassafras at the new gate:


And one of the whole fence (including temporary electric fence, unfinished lean-to, Sass, unsawed off fence poles, burn pile to the left and the odd fast-growing weeds (dark patches in near ground)...

Oh, and SK - no goats on the side of a hill...but how about some buffalo?

(This is through my neighbor's yard the other day - they haven't yet showed up in the field behind our house yet...)


And for the cuteness factor - 1 week old baby chicks:
