Good Fences Around the World

Hello and Welcome.

Joining Gosis (Looking for Identity) for GOOD FENCES AROUND THE WORLD.

Today I'm showing the last of the fence shots that I took from a trip we took in 2015 to a small town in Oregon (Weston) for breakfast one morning.

We spotted this along the drive and I had hubby pull over so I could get a couple of pictures.



Not much of a fence there but it went well with the Covered Wagon that was there.
 

A closer view of the Wagon

This I think was the entrace to an RV park.

Whenever I see covered wagons I always remember that as kids one night at the dinner table we ask our parents what it was like to come across the country on the covered wagons!  Of course our parents weren't old enough to have traveled in covered wagons but we sure thought they were.

Have a great day.

  3. Can you imagine making a cross country trip in one of those wagons with kids? One of my daughter's friends asked me if I was at home in Georgia when Sherman make his march to the sea! LOL

  9. I love that covered wagon...I cannot imagine going across the USA in one, though. Our ancestors had to be strong-willed and determined to do what they did.

  10. can you even IMAGINE going on a long journey in one of those?? People back then were surely of much stronger stock than us folks today, ha ha LOL Covered wagons remind me of Laura Ingalls Wilder books and old shows like Wagon Train and the Rifleman.

  11. It looks so fragile. Quite sobering to think of the long journeys they undertook in wagons like that. The fencing is lovely, too!

  16. Your covered wagon looks like something from a fairy-tale to me. It looks perfectly at home beside that rustic fence.

  17. isn't it odd how we viewed our parents? I always thought mine were old when we moved to KY and now that I do the math, mother was only 29 when I was 10.. love this covered wagon, I had not thought about they were the first RV's for traveling cross county.
