Good Fences #132 - Mission Fences & Little Things Thursday

Welcome! - Let's get ready to enjoy some GOOD FENCES hosted by Theresa from The Run-a-round Ranch Report and LITTLE THINGS THURSDAY hosted by Tamar from Random-osity

 Click to Enlarge all photos.


 First up Good Fences - These were all taken at the Whitman Mission on Saturday. - See Yesterday's Post for more photos from the Mission.


 This shot was used for my 52 Frames Photo this past week for the prompt, PATH - It's part of the Oregon Trail. - This split rail fence is feature throughout the park area and the grasses on the left are Native to the area.


 Another view of the wagon, trail & fencing from up on top of the hill where the Memorial Shaft is located.


 Fencing around the Memorial Shaft.

The fencing seen through some of the native grass.


 Heading up the path on the way up to the Memorial Shaft.  Loving the pretty trees.

One of the many birds in the park resting on the fencing.

Finally some cows from a nearby farm enjoying grazing in the nice warm sunshine.

Now for a couple of shots for Little Things Thursday.


My favorite season.  These berries trees were just loaded with berries and so pretty and colorful. -

It's the little things like watching the birds in the park that made the day extra special.

Have a great day & don't forget to stop by both blogs to check out the other participants.  You can do so by clicking on the links at the start of the post.

    That's not the kind of fence you see everyday.

    Hello Ida!:) Love those wagon trail views, and the blackbird perched on the split fencing. Your last two shots of the brightly coloured berries with a bird are gorgeous.

    Stunning photos of the split rail fences & a cute one with a little bird on top!
    Can you imagine travelling for thousands of miles in a wagon over terrible terrain! What pioneering spirit those folks had!

    Love that first fence. You need lots of wood and room for one of those.

    Beautiful peaceful photos, Ida. I traveled a bit of the Oregon Trail this summer when my husband and I drove to Glacier National Park. It was such a long drive by car I can't imagine how the pioneers did the trip by horse and wagon or by walking!

    I think those split rail are my favourite kind of fencing. They are just wood, but they look so intricate. Plus they last a long time I think.
    Beautiful locations you've captured. I love to bird watch now that I have a zoom lens.
