Friday's Fences ~ # 90

    This is the kind of gate n fence I remember having in the house I grew up in.  We lived in Baltimore City and had an alley in the back of the house.  All up n down the alley, you saw this type of fencing!  Whenever I see one like this..it's a blast from the past for me!
                                                               
Post a picture of a fence or of something through a fence and sign up below..
Thanks for posting today...hope you come back next week!

Even before I read your description was thinking the same thing! Very common fence in "our" era and still much appreciated.

The more rustic, er, rusty, the better!

That's a great memory to go along with this lovely photo. I am going to try and share a photo one of these days. I always enjoy looking at what people have to share in this meme. Have a great weekend.

Yes, that fence type looks very familiar!

It may be old and rusty, but still adds character to the old fence.

We had a gate like that when I was growing up too. I have one kind of like it, but I need to replace the netting on it. Great photo.

It's funny what memories we carry with us from childhood. It's wonderful that this fence brings those memories back for you!

seems to be a well worn gate

So much character in this weathered gate! It has charm and maybe a few stories to tell.

My youngest brother lives in a nice, but older neighborhood and all the fences are like this. Chain link type. In my area, all the fences are now wooden privacy fences.

Still see a lot of similar old fences and gates in small country towns. Something nice and homely about them.

I remember seeing fences like these when I was young, but haven't seen one in years. Nice find!

That is a neat looking old fence! :)

I like the old gate sagging a bit and enhanced with some mild rust. I'd like it in my back yard!

The house where I grew up had a gate just like that one, albeit it somewhat better shape. Great find!

I wanted to keep an old gate just like that one when we moved here. It was laying on the ground but hubby had it cleared away and taken to the tip before I could rescue it. I don't think the argument for keeping it would have been worth it.

Rusty garden gates is one of my favorite things.

That gate and fence has seen its better days - I relate to it because I've seen better days as well.

My husband and I have been having lots of problems living together, he never gives me attention or makes me happy because he has fallen in love with another woman outside our marriage. I tried my best to make sure that my husband leaves this woman but the more I talk to him about it the more he makes me feel sad and unhappy, My marriage started leading to divorce because he no longer gives me attention. I wanted to forget him but i love him and didn't want to lose him. We have been married for years and he is all I could call a true best friend and best in all, the man that handles my problems perfectly, the man that makes sacrifices for ,my happiness. I wanted him back in my life badly and I was so confused. My Friends told me to buy books about relationships, so I went online for relationship books while I came across a spell caster called Dr Emu. I read testimonies and reviews about him so I contacted him immediately, explained my problems to him. Same day , he casted a spell for me and assured me for 2 days that my husband will return to me and to my greatest surprise the third day my husband came knocking on my door and begged for forgiveness. I am so happy that my love is back again and not only that, we are about to get married again, he proposed. I wouldn't stop talking about him. Contact him today if you need his help via email: emutemple@gmail.com and you will see that your problem will be solved without any delay.
