Let me go look in the shed before we go and see if they have a post hole digger are we need one. because I hate making to many trips. I hear that. yeah, we got one did you lock up .sure did thanks well let us go to town and get our stuff. let us go we got to the store hey sam can you start on this list please I need to talk to the storekeeper, please.

yes, I sure can what you need to talk to him for because what I need our boat can't carry and see if they bring stuff out to people's house on the water. oh ok, I will start on our stuff. thanks, I come help as soon as I find out. ok hello, I'm Carla I live in the pass I was wondering if y'all deliver to people's houses out there because what I need will not fit on my boat.

what are you needing well I need to build a pen for some puppies and I want to put up a fence in my yard lets see our house is like 1000 SQ feet and my yard is about 3 acre but only want to do a half of it will be good enough. and do you think I should go with wood are link?

we have 1 puppy and get 3 more and I don't want them getting loose and lost out in the wood. well, young lady wood will be better I think and more private too. yes I know who is building it me and my sister boy that is a lot of work, yes I know when will you need it I said like yesterday with a smile.

I have some son's that do great work and what you want to be built will take them a day to do well that sounds great how fast can you have them out there how many open gates you want two. ok, I will have them out there in the morning with everything ok great that sounds good and oh tell them to knock on my door before they start, please.
