How Many Men Does It Take To Fix A Gate?

You might remember the Big Wind that came through here last December, reaking havoc and destruction. Our vinyl fence and side gate fell victim to the winds and last weekend the menfolk did some fixin'. I don't know how it is at your house, but at mine, things get fixed twice. First, the wrong way, and second, the right way. This is what the fence looked like after the first fixing attempt. Mind you, this was done by 3 highly intelligent, adult men:

Yup. The second attempt was much more successful. There was plenty of drilling,

measuring,

frustration,

heavy lifting and grunting,

not to mention yelling and arguing. Eventually the gate was successfully reattached.

There was also time for a Male Model of the Year photo session.

 This involved taking a picture, running to me to see what it looked like on the camera, rejecting the recent picture, running back to the posing spot and reposing.

 Taking pictures was fairly aerobic.
