On my main Tall Pines blog I recently wrote about rebuilding the fence between my yard and the hayfield. When I first started the work Rascal came out to "supervise" my work. A little surprising as he doesn't like to get near the road due to the vehicles and their loud noise. But there was a quiet time of no vehicles so he came to check my work.
It took me around a month to rebuild the fence. Later on, and as I got closer to the house, Rascal would only sit on the house steps to watch me. He didn't come out to inspect my work. I guess by then he realized I knew what I was doing.
