My DH would scoff at how low this is on the Big Job List, but I love the idea of my sign. I love the ones that are single posts in the ground, with a cross piece from which hangs a cool sign. I think black metal posts look sharp, with a sign that has more interest to it. I have already started on the end of the driveway landscaping, minimally, and have a long term goal in mind…which will be a cool back drop for my SIGN!

I did a quick Google search, got overwhelmed quickly, so decided to come here for advice, experiences and recommendations. I also have no clue about things like price, good materials, considerations for construction, weather, etc…so feel free to enlighten me, please.
I have known the name of the farm since before we bought it. When I shared it with DH a couple weeks after we'd closed, and when I thought he was recovered enough to hear me, I told him it was one of those things that I needed him to just say "great idea, I love it"...as it was coming from a very deep place. And I cried with just how blessed I felt. Good man that he is, he agreed.
My 16.5 years with Fergus have been beyond wonderful, with some unbelievably challenging experiences that have only added to how very much he is my heart. He has a huge presence, and everywhere he has every lived, he has been a herd leader, a protector, and a sentry…so watchful, though calm and kind about it. He would come off the trailer at a new boarding barn like he already owned the place.

When we put in the offer, and later closed, I told him all about "your forever farm". And I reminded him about it often when things were less than perfect at our last boarding place and he was struggling emotionally, and when we got unexpected news that everyone had to move.
One of my favorite farm names of all times was of a place I visited, a very comfortable, horse-friendly barn named for a best friend... "Paco's Place". I have never forgotten it.
And now, we own "Fergus' Farm".
