Yes... plant a fence.

Yep, I agree completely.
Absolutely the only thing that has a chance of working.

I've tried everything else. If read the deer don't like this,
they don't like that. Well, the truth is, they may not like some
kinds of plants, but they'll eat them anyway.

Last year I put up a 6 foot high fence:

I have high hopes for this working.

Your hopes are higher than the fence; get a higher fence and
remember tall the gates have to be the same height (and kept shut).

it might be too late to get another fence now. one thing you could do
it to add about 2 more feet of net fence on top of the wooden
fence. the net fence is nearly invisible but the posts supporting it
might be unsightly. you can use thin metal/iron rods as posts to
support the net fence.

That's plan B. Well, by now, probably plan J or K...

I think the neighbors might complain if they have to look at it
but in the summer we get enough vegatation that they won't see it.
I can put the netting up and take it down as needed.
