How do I go about repairing this fence and fence post?
I haven't touched the fence sinced we moved into our house a few years back. Needless to say, it's starting to show some wear and tear and finally one of the posts came loose. I thought there would be a concrete anchor to the post but there isn't. How should I go about repairing the fence? I'm thinking of adding a concrete anchor and swapping out all the rotted and worn out wood and matching the wood pieces. My wife thinks I should just hire a pro but I want to take a crack at it! :)
No concrete anchor....
Anchor to the side of the house

The offending fence. The post no longer is anchored and it just sways like the wind.

I'm also curious to know what kind of wood I should use? Does it have to be treated? How about painting? I don't want to have to paint the entire fence again but I also don't want the repaired fence to be bright white and the rest of the fence is aged and weathered. :)
