October 2004 Here are some articles and items that were being covered in the Octo- ber 2004 issue of World Fence News, 10 years ago this month. • The cover for October is a photo of a peeled-post rail fence that pro- vides a dramatic look to a new hous- ing subdivision near Driftwood, in rural Central Texas. The fence surrounds the proper- ty's entrance area and fronts a busy farm-to-market road. Even though it appears rustic and weathered due to the roughness of the wood and its light brown finish stain, the fence was installed fairly recently that year. Photo by Rick Henderson.
