A Fence Journey


Last Friday, Kim and her daughter, Chloe from Picking Poppies was in my area to visit her family and we took the opportunity to spend an afternoon together roaming the countryside.  One of my favorite things to do especially on this totally gorgeous afternoon. After the winter we had Spring has really had some outstanding days with sun, beautiful blue skies with white puffy clouds, low humidity (always a plus) and soft breezes.  And it was just that kind of day that we were blessed with.  Some fields had been planted with corn but the sprouts were really tiny as they burst forth to grow eventually into tall stalks and producing that much loved summer favorite....corn on the cob.


Recently Theresa from The Run A Round Ranch Report began hosting "Good Fences" on Thursdays. Fences have always been one of my favorite subjects to photograph and I don't know how I fell by the wayside, but then, alot fell by the wayside this past year, but anyhoo, decided to link up this week and share the fences that I discovered on the drive to the country.


I love this one because 1) beautiful blue sky 2) red barn 3) cows 4) great tree framing the barn...what more could you ask for from one fence lover to the next...!!!


And we can all use a little help now and again....even fences.


            
Hope your days are filled with sunshine, happiness and good fences.

  5. I find great pleasure viewing your photos Deanna, They make me feel so good because they are so wonderful to look at. Loved the Tree framing the barn, the angles you used for the first two shots and the detail of the fence/post in the last one. Just fabulous.
