I took progress photos over the working bee weekend to show the huge amount of work we did.

This is how it looked at the end of a big weekend after 10 trailer load trips to tip, no I'm not kidding, 10!
Look at all that sunlight - I honestly couldn't get over just how much sunlight was blocked by all the trees.
Later that week I had booked some local tradies to remove the larger trees and to grind them down to the ground. All of this work was to clear the way for a brand new timber fence down the East side (over 30metres) with a single gate across to the house and a double gate for the driveway.
I was lucky that the neighbours on the East side agreed to pay half on their side - by law they don't have to which would have seen me paying an additional $1,200.
You can see the new fence here - a lot more privacy than the 1metre high wire fence. The fence became a priority after I bought my first puppy earlier that year and I really wanted him to be able to play in the yard. I'll introduce you to little Charlie soon.
I promise to take a new photo (when the sun shows its face again) this time without the shade of the garage and the West side fence.
There is still lots to be done but I feel I have made a good start.
