It looks great so far buddy!! We need more pictures to prove you are working!!
If you need any more advice I can give recommendations!! No better way to learn how to give instruction on to someone else about building a fence than learning from your own mistakes, and having to look at that eye sore for the next 20 years.
Number one lesson, don't start the project out by buying 2 cases of beer and then be told by your wife it has to be done by the end of the weekend.. the first part of the fence is beautiful.. it the last half where I couldn't stand up straight or see straight, or drive a nail, or screw straight, or set a post straight.. or... you get the point.

I did make the mistake of telling the wife it would be done by Monday, even that wasn't true lol. Only bought 1 case of beer, apparently the perfect amount to keep the buzz going all Sunday for the hole drilling process. If I'm lucky I'll have it done by the end of the week as long as I keep a good pace. We're down to just the pickets now, going to get them all at least tacked in and then I'll go back and dig out some dirt so they are all level (as the ground slope allows). No mistakes so far except hitting the EagleCom line (hey, DigSafe didn't mark it !
) Shooting for as perfect as possible at this time, should look great. If nothing else the cedar pickets are like an air-freshener for the backyard!
