These shots were taken prior to the Halloween winds taking most of the leaves off the trees and during a walk around Lincoln Log Cabin Historical Site.
No fences below, but the evening sun shows up those amber waves of grain, or in this case, a soybean field.
The fields are no longer amber...
...the monstrous combines blew in and confiscated all the grain.
I've left JD and Fergus to fend for themselves for a few days. Have a great week and weekend.
Linking to Good Fences

Beautiful post. I especially like the second photo of the reddish orange leaves detailed on the fence. And the "amber waves of grain"...thank you for bringing them to us.
ReplyDeleteLove those fences. Great catch of the fall leaves on the fence! All the photos you shared were very nice.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty scene in that first shot. Love that type of fencing.
ReplyDeleteAlso the shot with the vine is wonderful. - Great photo of the Soy Bean field, I've never seen that type of a field crop before.
It's been years since I have visited the Lincoln Log Cabin site. I love the way they have the furnishings in the cabins to reflect life at that time.
ReplyDeleteYes, the combine has been busy here too. Funny... just a few miles from a major city and we have rural glory.
Great pics of the Lincoln fence! And those amber waves of grain!!
ReplyDeleteI love this style of fence you're sharing today. Very nice capture of the soybean field prior to harvest, but cool to see the farmers at work, too.

I just love that last shot!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you live in a beautiful spot.
ReplyDeleteFirst time I've ever understood what " amber waves of grain" actually are! We are from eastern Washington state originally but I remember the grain looking golden. Yours truly is amber. And beautiful! As all your pictures are.
