The Gate is Done

Here's what the gate at my mom's place looked like a week ago. The 50 year old gate was heavy, caught on the ground, and was very hard to open. And an almost dead tree was pushing the fence into an awkward angle.

Here's Brian finishing the new gate. (For other earlier views see Gate Almost Done)

The gate got done before I left LA. The latch was having trouble closing on its own, so Brian brought in some bike cable and some other small equipment to give it more weight.
