Good Fences - Bennington Lake Edition


Joining the fun of GOOD FENCES with Theresa from (The Run-a-round Ranch Report).

Today I'm sharing some fences taken at Bennington Lake last Wednesday.

Click on image to enlarge




There are lots of native grasses and plenty of trees, bushes and of course "fences" to enjoy while visiting the lake.  At the top of this photo there is a walking trail behind the fence.



If you get tired along the way there are benches placed periodically on the trails where you can rest and enjoy the view.

Speaking of the view....




Some views of Bennington Lake.  -  I'm not entirely sure if you can see the lake from the bench in the above photo's but I do know you could still see those hills/mountains in the background.
 
 
One last fence as you drive back out the park.
 
 



I don't know what those weeds are but they looked cool so I just had to stop and take a photo.


Have a wonderful day and don't forget to check out all the awesome fences by visiting Therea's blog and clicking on the links from other participants.

    I LOVE all your fences...and such great photos.
    My fence link is nearly not there...not too much of a fence but I wanted to play anyway. :)

    The views are really beautiful. I would say they are suggestive of... wishes, dreams and other magical things.

    What beautiful pictures, Ida. I love the native grasses in the fall when they turn that rich golden color and their different seed pods add so much texture to the view. You must really enjoy being at this lake ... it shows in the pictures you take.

    Hi Ida,
    The hills and the water definitely quenched my thirst for some scenery. I wonder why I see two fences in the last picture. Are they fences on two adjacent properties?

    Figure this is all in WA. Lovely scenes of places I haven't seen. Thanks for sharing.

    Peace :)

    Beautiful views! The trail does not look as if it has been mowed. Good place to pick up nettles and maybe ticks, as we have learned in the prairies of NE Illinois.

    The dying grass behind the fences adds a great dimension to the pictures. And the scenery in the other photos is so lovely.

    Oh, I really like that first photo. I can see myself getting a lot of stickers in my socks and shoes walking through that. Thank you for visiting my Vernal Falls Good Fence. That was an interesting article to read wasn't it? Goes to show there are a lot of stupid people out there, but we already knew that huh?

    Hello Dearest Ida;
    Views from 'Bennington Lake' is so GORGEOUS and BEAUTIFUL♡♡♡ And the fence with grasses sort of reminds me of the peaceful play ground when young :-) I had a couple of trip to Europe when younger but never been to America. Thank you very much for sharing great views♪

    Sending Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan, xoxo Miyako*
