This is across the road from my sister and brother-in-law's house. One of my favorites, a split rail fence. I liked the bird house, high above the fence. I wonder if anyone lives there yet?
I saw these in my sister's back yard near her garden. I never did ask her just what they were for, but my niece said they might be tomato cages? Either way, since they're made out of fencing, I figured they count!
We can't forget the Virginia chickens inside their fence! My chickens would be jealous of all that thick grass! They wouldn't come close to me, but that's ok. I'll eat their eggs anyway...
As we headed for home, I started out in the passenger seat. I snapped a few shots out the window as we headed up Route 81. You couldn't miss this one, just as we got on the interstate. I just stuck my camera out the window and snapped. I like the way the fence borders the bottom of the picture. Pure luck...
And a few more random shots along the road...
Do you see the steer behind that tiny cedar tree?
The fences here at home are getting a little boring, so I hope you enjoyed the Virginia fences today!
Joining up again today with Good Fences...
tomato cages...I've not seen this kind before...but hey...might very well be.
ReplyDeletesuch lovely countryside! great green rolling fields. great catch on the fence border photo. and happy chickens, too!
ReplyDeletethanks for linking in, alica!
i thought of pepper plants in those cages, too. :)
ReplyDeleteWe use tomato cages that look very similar, but we wrap chicken wire around ours to keep those cute little bunnies out. Nice selection of fences and green rolling hills.
ReplyDeleteMaybe they are tree cages so the cows or horses can't rub or chew the trees? We've done that here.
ReplyDeleteA nice variety of fences, beautiful countryside!
ReplyDeleteA great assortment of fences. The rolled wire can also be used for composting and you plant your garden around it.
ReplyDeleteReally nice shots, all of them. I love the early spring look to these photos, with the rich green and nearly bare branches.
ReplyDeleteMy husband made tomato, pepper and peony cages out of those metal cement reinforcing metal grids. Great photos Alica.
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Love how the tomato cages look like yard art. We have some beautiful fences here in Virginia.
ReplyDeletein my humble opinion nothing is better than a Virginian view. they are so perfect!! why i can't imagine ever living anywhere besides Virginia. awesome shots.
ReplyDeletethanks, for stopping by. have a great weekend. ( :
Very nice fence shots. I really liked the first one with the birdhouse on the post and also the white fence. Lots of lush green countryside. I did spot that cow after taking another look.
ReplyDeleteLots of pretty country fences. We made tomato cages like that out of wire fencing.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful country!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice series of fence photos. I love the rural countryside. It's so green!
ReplyDeleteThere used to be a big herd of buffalo kept behind that white fence you captured just as you got onto 81. When I was a child, I used to love driving by there to see all the huge beasts!
ReplyDeleteYes, they are tomato cages, made by a friend from... what else? Wire fence.
ReplyDeleteI love all of your fences and the tomato cages (or whatever they are) make a very artistic photo! My daughter has been living in Virginia for four years and I've loved adventuring around there. Now they are being transferred to Texas so I'll have a new place to discover. I think I'm going to miss Virginia though.
ReplyDeleteGreat fences, all. I do love to see split-rail fences the most. They are so simple yet pretty.
ReplyDeleteHi. Lovely selection of fences from Virginia .
ReplyDeleteLovely rural scenery and very practical tomato cages :D)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Love all the green grass and great fences!
