The left-side fence post had rotted and weakened. So today, Sunday, after my marathon bus tour, Matthew, Beth and I spent a long time and a lot of energy digging a 2 1\/2 foot deep hole with a post hole digger. Then we inserted an 8&#8243; diameter cardboard form into the hole, back filled around it, and inserted a new 4&#8243;x4&#8243; treated fence post into the tube. We mixed 80 lbs of concrete in the wheelbarrow, shoveled it into the tube around the post, and found that we didn&#8217;t have enough. So off I went to Home Depot to buy 60 lbs more. We mixed it up and filled the tube to the top. Tonight it&#8217;s curing and then we&#8217;ll put the fence back together. I really appreciate both Beth&#8217;s and Matthew&#8217;s help today. I couldn&#8217;t have done it without them.<center><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/1fifoto.com\/weblog\/images\/FencePost20070205.jpg\"\/><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few weeks ago the fence on the side of the house blew down.
