Old thoroughbred farm fence~Friday's Fences~111513

There's an old thoroughbred ranch up in our local mountains.  Actually, there are several of them, all no longer used as breeding farms, however.  This one is right at the corner where I turn to Anza, to go visit my horses every weekend..  It's been there as long as we have lived in the desert, so that's over 30 years.  At one time its fences were white and freshly painted.  Now, however, they are in need of repair and paint.  I kind of like them the way they are...they're like me...old and tired!  :-)  I hope they never paint them!  I love to stop here during the seasons and watch how the trees change and the fences deteriorate!  I can't wait to see this place in the winter again, covered with snow, but for now the autumn leaves add a real sense of color to the ranch, don't you think?  The trees were at their peak last weekend.  I wonder what they'll look like this weekend?   To visit Friday's Fences, please go to this link and see other entries:  http://lifeaccordingtojanandjer.blogspot.com/
