Good Fences - A Touch of Summer on a dreary winter day.

Joining Gosia today for Good Fences Around the World.

Sharing a fence/gate taken in June of 2015 - I wanted to share a fence that wasn't covered in snow today. - We are in the midst of an ice storm today but temps are suppose to rise to 46 by mid-afternoon.  School was canceled yet again today due to hazardous driving conditions.


 
I love Hydrangea's so when I saw this one growing by this nice black wrought iron fence I had to take a picture of it.
 
On another note we've had computer/e-mail issues again this week which were finally resolved yesterday.  Although I was almost a victim of a "computer scam" but was wise enough to realize when the guy said we would have to pay a (one time fee of $97 to fix the problem) that he wasn't legitimate and I managed to avoid further problems. - Long story.  Anyway I'm happy to be back on-line and hope to visit your blogs soon.
 
 

 On the other side was a nice gate along with the house numbers set into a large chunk of wood which I thought was pretty neat looking as well.

Hope you've enjoyed a little bit of summer here today.

  16. Yikes! Good for you in realizing it was a scam.
    That gate with the house bombers set into the wood is awesome! It even has a pedestal to sit on. Beautiful.

    Have a blessed weekend, Ida

It has been a doozy of a winter though! Glad you got all your computer issues resolved, and didn't get taken in the scam! Hugs to you today :)

  18. Very nice fences and I like how they did the house number on the log slab!

  19. Very nice fence and flower images! You do really need to be so cautious with all the computer schemes. I questioned even some legitimate e-mails when I did not recognize the senders' addresses.

  24. Ida, Thank you so much for visiting/commenting. You and I lost contact there for a while but you are a special blog friend and I'm happy to be back following one another again.

  25. I'm back from just having computer and blog issues myself! Thankfully I was able to figure it out myself and zero costs incurred. I cannot wait for my garden and my own hydrangea's - one of my favourite flowers. I really love the detail of the wood to put the house numbers - what a great natural touch beside the iron work of the fence and gate.
