12 Aug 20 - Today I completed the West gate by putting all the pickets back on one half. Today we are going to start the East side gate rebuild. Notice the twist in the gate? It wasn't built like that.
It was getting more and more difficult to open and close. I had put a cable on the back side to help with the sag, but I think that gave it the twist.
Both gates have been removed. I also noticed the hinges are rusted and will be replaced. I also broke off some of the lag bolts in the gate ends, so the 4X4's are going to be replaced. I didn't break any off in the 6X6 posts that hold the gates, so I don't have to replace wither of them. So I have a trip to Home Depot in the morning to get the hinges and a 4X4.
