Back Gate: The Gate Installed

We're marching forward like the little ants that we are, building and building on the back gate and pergola project.

The swinging gate has been installed.

And already making fantastic patterns of shadow and light on the wall and limestone path.



Mr. Ed is hanging his head over the gate. Perfect height...Is he tired or just greeting the neighbor? I vote for tired. Real frickin' tired...

Nice. Will you paint or leave it natural?

nice craftsmanship.

The plan for now is to leave this natural and let the wood speak for itself. The gray will also match all the other older gray cedar in the garden. BUT, there's always the possibility. We've definitely been pondering staining it black a la Donald Judd via Finland, but that probably wouldn't happen for years if at all. I think the simple unfinished look will go with the house.
