Fence post repair at the rear gate get replaced as the termites have gotten the better of it. A new treated 4x4 post turns out to be a bit large for the existing hole in the concrete. Shaping it down a bit helps but the hole need to be cleaned out and enlarged beneath the concrete in order to pour more concrete. This will keep the post from contacting the soil. Blasting it out with a garden hose and pulling the rocks out by hand creates enough space to pour new cement in. The new latch is self-adjusting with a rod portion that moves vertically by about half an inch, definitely worth the extra money.
