Good Fences #71 - Let's Horse Around

Welcome!

Good News....The Blue Creek Fire near Walla Walla, WA is now 85% contained!
Thanks to everyone for your prayers about this horrible wild fire and let's continue to pray for all the fire fighters out there battling fires all over the US right now.

Let's join Theresa (The Run-a-round Ranch Report) now for GOOD FENCES.

Here is another of the fun fence finds that Coleen and I spotted while driving around one day.



 This nice Wrought Iron Fence was adorned with Horse Heads.


 A littlc closer view of the heads on the posts.

Apparently they love horses here as evidenced by the fence and the statues in the yard.  Check this one out.



We turned around and drove up the stree to the front of the house and discovered that they had more Horse stuff at the front of the house....no fence though but I just have to share anyway.


 

Isn't this precious.

Thanks for stopping by.  I enjoy your visits and comments very much.
Have a great day.

    Hi Ida!
    Now that is a nice fence, especially with the horse-head hitches. And I really love the girl and her horse, too. Great captures! Have a wonderful weekend!

    The horse heads on the fence look really cool. They remind me of chess play figures.

    We got some new wild fires here - it has been so hot and also windy, very difficult for the firefighters. Many homes have been evacuated by now. If we only got some rain!

    Wow, Ida, that is truly beautiful. Could have been tacky, but I think it is very well done. Especially the statue of the little girl with the little horse. Precious.

    I wonder if they have horses at a farm? That sure is a unique fence. I have never seen one with horse heads...they look like they are there to loop the reins through.

    I continue to be amazed at the fences you find, while I typically don't see any.
    We are going on a small road trip this weekend to an area I have never visited before. I will be watching for fences!

    Such an impressive fence with those horses heads. As I'm such a fan of birds Ida I think I need to source some birds to adorn my fences!

    Oh LOVE this!!! I grew up around horses, and while its even nicer to have the real thing running around your yard; that statue with the child is beautiful. definitely the kind of fence I'd love to have.
    Yeah for those brave fire fighters doing such tireless work!

    What a lovely horse theme carried through from the fence to the front door. They must be a seriously horse-loving family. It's great when people express their passions in their decoration and design. So glad to hear that the fires are being contained. It must be terrible for you to live with the fire in your area. Wishing you a super weekend. All the best, Bonny
