Friday's Fences


The backroad to the farm is a treasure trove of photo opportunities. The wagon wheel fence is located on that particular FM Road (Farm to Market).








I'm joining with Jan and Jer for Friday's Fences ......

      Hello Elaine...It is a first for me too! There are two sections, one on each side of the driveway leading to a farmhouse.

    Happy Friday Meggie! It seems to have come around very quickly this week - time is just flying by. I love the fence - it probably wouldn't last long over here as metal theft is on the increase!

      Hello Scarlet....I'm thinking your Friday is almost over. It seems like it was just Easter Sunday. Such a shame about metal theft. Actually, I don't understand stealing anything. I think about your fruit from your allotment. You and hubby did all the work....

      Welcome Tanya...thank you. I hopped over to your Friday"s Fences and took a look around. Virginia is my favorite state! That is, next to Texas.

    Meggie, this brought back a memory of the wagon wheel my mother searched for to lean against the post coming into our driveway. She created such a magical garden there--some daffodils, a red bud tree, day lilies, and vinca. That wagon wheel in spring came to life! I love their unique use in a fence...it made me smile. XOXO

      Hello Susan...I agree, the fence does put a smile on my face. It conjures up all kinds of questions like, where did they get that many wheels? Whose idea was it?

    I love that wagon wheel fence.What a novel way to use them!
    I am just wondering what time difference there is between you there and us here in UK, do you have any idea?

      Hi Anne....someone had a plan. Do you think it was a "Honey-Do" job? I believe the time difference is 6 hours.

    I wonder where they got all those wheels...were they collected over the years or bought? Whatever, it is a wonderful fence!

      Hello Marie...I think it is one of a kind. I've heard of Ledbetter, but I don't believe I have ever been there.

      Hello Suzy...It makes me want to go thrifting tomorrow and look for 1 wagon wheel. I can't imagine having enough money to buy that many. I should have counted the wheels.

    Don't you just marvel at what people choose for fencing material? Sometimes it's just whatever is available at the time. This wagon wheel choice is really whimsical. Also makes a great photos--closeup and long view.
