Linking up with Skywatch Friday and Good Fences
I wish everyone in the USA a very Happy 4th of July!
Since most of my outings are on the weekend I am sharing some various scenes. One is on the way to my son's place and from my son's backyard, my moon shot from my deck & yard and hubby is sharing his sunset shot at our lake. It is a hodge podge of photos for Tex's Good Fences and for Skywatch Friday!
We pass this farm and barn every time we visit my sister and now when we visit my son's new place..I have always loved this barn.. So, I just had to pull over and get a shot. It is perfect also for Tex's Good Fences..
I hope you enjoyed my post and photos from our weekend walk..

Thanks to Tex @ The Run*A*Round Ranch for hosting Good Fences and to Sylvia, Yogi and Sandy for hosting Skywatch Friday! I wish everyone a safe and happy long weekend.

A closer look at my favorite barn, a cute horse and donkey..
The fence scene in my son's backyard with his pretty white dogwood..The previous owner was a older lady that loved to garden.. I hope my son takes care of all her pretty plants..
I am pretty sure that this is a Great-Crested Flycatcher in my weeping cherry tree. I can only say that because of the sounds I was hearing from this bird. The Flycatcher can be tricky to me.

And this is hubby favorite place to watch the sunset at our lake..A pretty sky and a beautiful reflection. Hubby is becoming a great photographer..

ReplyDeleteHello Eileen,
ReplyDeleteLovely post!
The dogwood tree is gorgeous and reminds me of the one we had in South Africa we used to call the "butterfly tree"!
Don't the flowers look like butterflies perched at the tip of the branches?!
Wonderful soothing sunset too!
Your son is lucky to live in this beautful area!
Keep well!
beaut' photos every one Eileen. I enjoyed the barn location very much; the beautiful dogwood in your son's garden, your hubby's sunset photograph; well done all.

ReplyDeleteLove your barn photos with those great fences. It took us a month to put up about 20 feet of fence. (We didn't work on it every day.)
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine how much time it took to put up all of that fencing.
Thanks for stopping by to view my "Good Fences" post.

ReplyDeleteI did a double-take when you said 'our son's place'...I thought, what, isn't he just a teenager?. Then I realized how long I've been visiting you! They do grow up don't they (and thank goodness).
Your sunset shot left me in awe, as well as the pastoral scene of the barn and fencing. Hope you have a safe and happy 4th!

Fantastic photos, Eileen! You have some wonderful views in your neck of the woods, and your photos are great!
ReplyDeleteThat is a neat barn! And your son's "adopted" dogwood (as well as the fence behind it!) is lovely. That gorgeous crescent moon shot is my favorite - though your husband's photos are starting to give yours a run for their money! :-) Beautiful sunset..
ReplyDeleteThese are great. I love the optical illusion of the rippled fence shadows in the grass.
ReplyDeleteHealing lovely country shots, Eileen!

Oh a fence linky! I used to link up with one, so took lots of fence shots. That person no longer blogs.
Very nice shots !
ReplyDeleteYou have an ideal spot to enjoy the day's end. Such a magnificent sunset!!
ReplyDeleteHi Eileen,
ReplyDeleteSuch an AMAZING post for its spectacular photos!! The barn and its surrounding fence, rolling hills and horses could easily be an oil painting! Your son's garden is enchanting; I'm sure he appreciates the work and love that went into it by the previous owner, and your hubby's sunset shots are brilliant!!
Happy weekend!
