Fences Around the World & Thankful Thursday

Welcome - Hope your summer has gone well.  It's hard to believe it's winding down already.  School started this week and soon Fall will be arriving. 

Today I'm joining Gosia (Looking for Identity) for FENCES AROUND THE WORLD.

About two weeks ago I was walking down the alley near the grade school and happened to notice something that hadn't been there before.

Someone had decided to add something to there fence:





This window was put into the fence and I thought that was a fun touch to a plain board fence.


Another shot from the opposite angle.

A view down the length of the alley.  Notice those sunflowers hanging over the top of the fence.

Don't they look cheerful.

So what was the view from the window....



A nice little place to sit & relax.

I hope you've enjoyed this charming little edition to the fence.

Now for an Update on Callie-Jo - Joining Michelle for THANKFUL THURSDAY.




It's been 10 days now since we took Callie-Jo to the Vet.  After bringing her home I spent 6 days feeding her through a Syringe so she would have food in her stomach and not develp liver problems.  She refused to eat or even drink water on her own during that period. -  Little by little she started showing signs of being interested in eating again and today I am happy to report that she is eating & drinking normally and is back to being the sweet loving cat that she was prior to whatever illness she had. 

Thank you all for your prayers for her.  I know they helped.

  1. so glad Callie is better.. I have never seen a window in a fence, but it is a good idea I think. I am betting they have a reason for it and I would like to know that reason.

  5. I'm so glad that Callie-Jo is feeling so much better and I hope she continues in great health now. I like the idea of the little window in the fence. Maybe the people who lived there didn't want to feel too cut off from the big world! :)

  8. Oh, my...I missed Callie's illness. I am glad she is better. I re-subscribed to updates. I had not gootten any for a while, though I do not know why.
    What an odd fence. It sort of defeats the purpose of privacy. I wonder what the reason for the window is. I would feel...odd. But, what a great post it made! Hugs!

    Have noticed that the bloggers who are caretakers are the most exhausted! Hope you're taking care of yourself:)
    And of course, always welcome at All Seasons, although I skip coming Sunday for Labor Day weekend, too many things going on at the same time, and none to sit behind the computer! Have a lovely weekend!

  26. Hello Ida!:) You always come up with the goods where fences are concerned.:) What an unusual fence,...there must be a very nice view on the outer side of the fence that the owners wanted to look at! Lovely shot of the sunflowers.:)

  28. So glad to hear that your lovely cat is on the road to recovery. It must have been a very tough time for you. I love the windowed fence, and those beautiful sunflowers. They've all faded and died back over here - a sure sign that summer has been and gone - sob!
