Anyone know anything about fences? The drought is destroying mine.

LOL, I actually was running a hose in the pullet pasture in order to make a little mud patch for them, and noticed that the water was running right down in that crack and disappearing. I had to put the hose elsewhere.

We did get over an inch of rain this morning

so maybe we'll be able to reset the posts without resorting to gravel or QuickCrete.

If you do have to reset the post, you don't want to use QuickCrete. QuickCrete will harder around the post alright but the earth will just pull away from the QuickCrete so you end up with the same problem but actually a bigger headache to try and fix. Pee-gravel is the way to go. I set all my post with pee-gravel except for the corner post.

Thanks. I wondered about that. I appreciate the advice.
