Good Fences #54 - Fences and Tulips



Hello & Welcome. - It's been a lovely week here with beautiful springtime weather.  I'm happy to report that I'm feeling much better, my mom is doing okay but her cold still lingers on.  The best news is that my husband is doing quite well and while he still has some stiffness and soreness in his joints he is able to get around and has gone back to work.  We praise God for His blessings and we thank all of you who faithfully prayed for us during this time.

Now let's join Theresa (The Run-a-round Ranch Report) for the very fun meme:  GOOD FENCES.  You'll see fences of all type from all over the world and have a good time so don't forget to stop by and check it out.

Yesterday after Coleen got home from school we took a walk up the block from our place and discovered some wonderful and delightful fences paired with gorgeous flowers.  I hope you enjoy them as much as we did.

This one sits across the street from us.  The house is for sale but the grounds have been kept up so nicely even though the place is vacant.  The tulips look so pretty against the weathered wooden fence.

What a lovely yard this was.  The split rail fence looks nice and the back ground flowers just added to the charm of this wonderful yard.

This fence was a copper colored metal fence with a string of lights around it and darling arbors.  The flowers were equisite here.  I'll be sharing pictures (close-ups) of those tulips in the background tomorrow so be sure to check back.

So there you have it some fabulous spring flowes and fences to show them off.  -  Have a great day.

    I love all of these but the tulips in front of the slates is very lovely! If the house is vacant I'd be over taking so many photos of the tulips. :)
    Looks like you live in a lovely neighborhood - pretty up kept yards.

    Some very attractive pictures. I saw the ones on previous posts; also attractive. I like a fence that is weathered a bit.

    I wanted to thank you for your kind sympathies on the death of my Tungsten. She was my orange heart.

    love the split rail fence - I'd definitely love something like that. it wouldn't give us much privacy from our neighbours though.

    but the copper one is gorgeous, and I definitely want a closer peek in those gardens. I cannot wait for Spring!

    So glad you are all feeling better. The pictures you shared are so pretty and springy! We are going to get some rain the next few days, so that should help things start greening up and looking better.

    Hi, Ida! I was unable to leave a comment on your blog for a while, so I'm a little behind. Then LuLu got sick and now I'm way behind, but I have enjoyed my visit today and all your beautiful photos. I hope you had a nice Easter.
