Good Fences #49

Hello Friends.  -  Before I share this weeks Good Fences post I'd like to thank each and everyone that sent up prayers and well wishes for my husband.  -  He's been back at work this week and seems to be doing fine although this morning he was complaining a bit about having some mild discomfort in his chest.  He's seeing a doctor this morning so he'll be able to talk to him about that while he's there and he has his appointment with the Cardiologist scheduled for Monday.  I truly appreciate your support and prayers.  It means a lot to both of us.

Now let's join Theresa (The Run-a-round Ranch Report) for GOOD FENCES








When Coleen and I walked up to the park last week I spotted this rather weathered picket fence in need of a new coat of paint.  I stopped and snapped a couple of pictures of it. 

After I uploaded them I noticed something on one of the wrungs that made me laugh.  Did anyone spot it in the picture above?

How about now? 



Give up?.....okay here's a close up of the post I'm talking about.



Doesn't it seem to be sad that it's paint job is in dire need of....well a "New Fresh Coat of Paint!"

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by.

  10. They all have sad faces through the nails as eyes :) But the one especially. Gosh, am I glad that there are more fences in the world that need some paint! I thought I was the only one that has those around ;)

  16. I've just been to your older post and read about your husband. What a shock it must have been for you both, but it's really good to know that he's up and around again. All the best to both of you :D) xx

  21. What a great fence with lots of character!

  22. Hi Ida,
    The fence could use a fresh coat of paint - you are right!
    Were you referring to the missing nails in the fence? I didn't see anything else (doesn't mean that there ain't anything else there) funny!

    Have a Beautiful Day!
    Peace :)

  23. That is a sad looking picket.

  24. Glad to hear he is up and getting around.

  25. Oh! I just saw the face in one of the fence posts. (It's taken me about 3 looks to find it!) How funny.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Ida, I'm so sorry to hear about your husband. You must be worried even though it was "only" a "mild" heart attack. O hope the appointment with the cardiologist will bring more clarity, and I do hope that he recovers completely.
    Your fence is wonderful - I actually like the weathered look. I did see the sad face - it definitely is not happy with the old chipped paint.

  27. Looks like Tom Sawyer needs to come whitewash this fence! :) Glad to hear your hubby is doing better.

  28. I didn't spot it in the first picture, but it jumped right out at me in the second. Tee hee! Had to show Rich. This fence has so much character, and I do mean character. I hope your hubby gets himself all fixed up soon. The right meds will probably do the trick. I know this must be worrisome for you.

  29. Great fence shots. Perhaps need a lick of paint!

  30. Glad to hear that your husband is getting better. Hope all goes well with the cardiologist.
    Great fence, but yes it could do with a new lick of paint.
    All the best,

    Bonny

    It definitely could use a fresh coat, but I wonder if that would turn that frown to a smile? :)
