Fence on the Roof

 At the top of an older Newmarket home

Yesterday while my husband was taking a nap, I took a walk from the hospital to Main Street, Newmarket to see what I could find to photograph.

Looking over a fence to see a fence (Did you get that?)

I am linking to Good Fences HERE.

    I agree. I would call it a widow's walk... that's assuming you can see the ocean from there !

    The one on the roof is work of a craftsman.

    Those are awesome crafted fences and the house is beautiful! I was thinking widow's walk too atop the house! Now that is a unique fence for Good Fences! Cool!

    The fences are great but what's even better is that you were able to get out and see a few things and have some fresh air.

    Great old house, EG! It's funny how blogging can be an escape for a bit when things are stressful but it does make you head out for a walk when you can and just occupy your mind a little. Hope the patient gets out of there soon.
