Interesting !! Well, the problem with digging the post holes is the fact that the area is so rocky. I might need the jackhammer to get through those. I have a really short little metal border fence that was pretty neat, but only about 2ft high. It has the rods one can push (or pound) into the ground to hold it in place. Since it is not very big, that works well. The wind gets really bad here. I guess there are really no shortcuts. (Heavy sigh...) Thanks!
