Fencing!

Wow, exciting news! A fence is being put up around the mandala garden to help keep the wallabies out. This will be a wooden post and wire mesh fence. Combined with the electric fence that we'll put at "jumping" distance should hopefully deter the wallabies that don't mind the electric fence.
The plan will be to grow some pretty (and maybe edible) vines through the fence so that it serves a few functions.
