Author Jeff Beneke walks readers through this planning process-High or low? Open or closed? Gated or no? Building with wood, metal, brick, concrete, or shrubbery? What type of fasteners? After the design and materials have been chosen, Beneke guides readers through the building process with illustrated step-by-step instructions. Also included is information on how to repair fences and gates that have been damaged by the ravages of time.

A quest to make peace with your past, release the burdens you carry for your ancestry and embrace the gifts of the present.How we treat our inner child reflects on every aspect of our lives. It is the foundation of our habits and of our self-worth. When we deny, reject, or criticize our own innocence and vulnerability, we hinder our capacity for authenticity and connection. We are desperate for a semblance of control because we felt powerless as a child, and we attempt to protect ourselves by directing arrows of judgment, criticism, and negativity towards ourselves and others.Political hatred, discrimination, and crime can all be traced to childhood wounding. These harmful behaviors, along with depression, anxiety, and self-doubt, are the inner child''s desperate call for help. Our younger selves are still trying to get their needs met, and it is now our responsibility to meet these needs. Nobody else can. Until we meet our own needs, we blame our parents, our partners, and the world. We are stuck in a triangle of disempowerment in which only three roles are available: victim, villain and rescuer.
