This is on Glebe Road in Daleville. I use this little road as a short cut to get to Food Lion. I love the simpleness of this fence, these are really one of my favorite styles. Right next to this fence is a fancy fence made of brick and iron. Someone took a lot of time and money last year to put that up and to me it looks so out of place sitting next to this plain but perfect little fence. I obviously prefer this one to it's hoity toity neighbor next door!
That's a field of Queen Anne's Lace growing on the other side of the fence.
Linking up with Friday Fences ... Have a great weekend :)
Hi Tanya,
ReplyDeleteThank you for visiting my blog this morning. Blogger unfortunately seems to be throwing a bit of a wobbly today which I think is why the comments window appears to have disappeared off into the ether! I so know what you mean about the simplicity of the fence you've posted a photo of here; it's quite perfect, especially with all the lovely flowers behind it!
Isn't the big fence just gross? I'm with you - little fence!
ReplyDeleteha, yes!!
DeleteThat field of Queen Anne's Lace behind and, of course, the sky above make it look like a watercolor.
ReplyDeletegorgeous skies. (:
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty photo. I'm with you on the fences, much prefer the natural wooden ones.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a simple fence, they don't expect intruders I think.
ReplyDeleteIdyllic! I like plain, rail fences out in the country, too.
ReplyDeleteForget the fence...just look at that gorgeous sky!!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous setting! You can't go wrong with a simple wooden fence.
ReplyDeletei like plain and simple - until it comes to maintenance sometimes. :)
ReplyDeleteI like the simple ones too. B
ReplyDeleteI like this style of fence as well.
ReplyDeleteLove your little fences and happy you chose to highlight this one (not its hoity toity neighbor:)!
ReplyDeleteThat is one funky fence, you have done this simple boundary item justice.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a wonderful weekend.

I like the simple wooden fence and seeing all the flowers through it.
ReplyDeleteThis is so pretty! I love the perspective.
ReplyDeleteYou are right about the fence. It echoes the feels of the area and shows the unique perspective of the photographer.
ReplyDeleteI like the line of flowers.
ReplyDeletelooks great!
ReplyDeleteI'm most comfortable around the simple.
ReplyDeleteLove these simple pastural scenes. What a pretty short cut.
ReplyDeleteDarryl and Ruth :)
I like these kinds of fences. They're simple and functional. :)
ReplyDeleteCountry fence at it's best- I hope they don't replace this one too!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you that the simple fence is much more appealing. Fine Friday Fences shot.

Simply beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOne of the things I love about other Botetourt bloggers is seeing photos of places I know. I know this fence and the brick and iron one you mention!
ReplyDeleteI enjoy all your other photos from wanderings you've made in surrounding counties. We certainly live in a beautiful area.
Simple fences are often the prettiest. I love all that Queen Anne's lace.
ReplyDeleteA field of Queen Anne's lace and a simple fence--the very best rural view. Like you, I think it's best when the fence blends in or accents the landscape just enough. Overdone fences are just jarring. BTW, for the past 30 years I've painted my home inside with Porter's Queen Anne's Lace--best white ever--soft but no yellow.
ReplyDeleteLate getting to FF visits. Glad to see everyone else seems to be having a busy weekend too. :-)
Love this shot,looks so peaceful :)
ReplyDeleteGreat fence and lovely photo! I have always loved Queen Anne's Lace. When our grandson was small he called them "Snowflakes."
