I have seen other blogs where they talk about the missing fence and being used to help cover and burn the body. But the wheelbarrow that Cesear supposedly is buying at Lowe’s was bought on the 16th, a Sunday. Maybe he broke his or borrowed someone else’s then replaced it. Or maybe he dug the pit and buried her after a couple of days. But if he bought the wheelbarrow on a Sunday, when did he use it? Was there a time stamp on the Lowe’s video?
Also, the neighbor indicates bonfires in the back on Christmas Eve, Christmas, and New Years’s (give or take a day or two). Why didn’t he notice the bonfire on the 15/16/or 17th? Something isn’t adding up. It would make more sense if the body was stored for a period of time.
Or maybe he dug the hole, put her in it, covered it up with fence portions then burned her later 23/24. The bodies would have to be pretty bad smelling by then, though. This is really gross.

McGyver!
I believe he had to multi-task - probably had already planned a barbecue(s) over the holiday season and to avoid suspicion he combined cremation with the cook-out. To pull it off - the wife had to know - and perhaps one or two really close buddies.
As far as the smell of a decomposing body - 2-3 feet covered with charcoal and lighter fuel and wind - would camouflage the smell. Also fill the pool up with plenty of chlorine. Those houses are not that close.
