Good Fences, Wisconsin Barns, and The Littlest Voter

Baby Oliver
Stuffing the Ballot Box
(just kidding)

Before I get started with the fences, I wanted to share this photo our daughter-in-law sent after they'd voted yesterday.

Rice Lake, WI

Just down the road from New Hope Lutheran


Dallas, WI

Between Bloomer and Colfax

Love the Just Voted family picture. Nice to see our kids vote, isn't it?
Great pictures, as always. I have always liked the Rice Lake area. xo Diana

Before my eyes really focused on it, thought pic of your Mandarin Orange soap was a pic of a couple of slices of bacon. Hey! Maybe a new flavor of soap for you to make! Hahahahahhhaaaaa! (I slay me!)

Love the whole lookin' right thing with baby Oliver. Maybe he voted Republican? Although he's glancing right but leaning a little to the left. Maybe he's an Independent? LOL!

Love the fences. So happy your family vote, cute photo. I heard that a huge percentage of people did not vote in your U.S.election that is sad. When will people realize people in other countries die for that right. Our country is the same. Sorry for the rant.:) Hug B

I hope Oliver's candidate won!!
It's never too young to teach children their civic duty-ha.

The fences are all great. A couple of them are really unusual.

Nancy said...

I love the woven fence the best but definitely would not enjoy painting it!

podso said...

It did my heart good that both of our kids voted early. At least we got that right (good citizens). Your photos are all good but I love the first one the best! Setting a good example right from the start. What a cutie!

Terri D said...

Great shot of the kiddos! I always enjoy your photos of fences (and everything else, too!).

Lorrie said...

Great fences but the star of this post is cute little Oliver!

Red Rose Alley said...

That's such a cute picture of the baby, Judy. Great looking fences too. My father-in-law who is from Wisconsin passed away, and his funeral is this weekend. He always talked about his roots and where he came from.

Have a good rest of the week.

Great barn, fences and little voter!

Margaret Birding For Pleasure said...

Oliver is cute. I especially love the first interlacing fence with its shadow.

Mike@Bit About Britain said...

Great first picture - of course! I'm afraid I'm with Bing Crosby on fences...

The Cranky said...

I adore the first fence (and the wee church!).

Denise said...

Aw, so cute.

magnoliasntea said...

Great fence shots, Judy, but that little stickered sweetie pie stole the show methinks. :) Have a great day!

MadSnapper said...

Anonymous said...

Oh your voter is so cute gave me a chuckle. Hope your vote was a happy vote you chose.

Like your fences all nice.

Cute little guy! I vote for that first fence -- something a little different than I've seen before.

Beth said...

Hi Judy, Pretty fence, church, and colorful trees. Have a good wknd!

That fence where the boards weave in and out. Now, that is unbelievable. Who would take the time to do that!!

Tanya Breese said...

oh that littlest voter stole my heart!

Carletta said...

Love that first fence and the shadow it makes and that last barn is just wonderful!
What a cute little one!

Lois said...

That first picture is so adorable! The fences are great too.

A Colorful World said...

Love the fences and the church and the barn...I loved everything! :-) The photo of the open woven fence was especially interesting, and the shadows made it even more so.

Primitive Stars said...

Morning, oh my what a sweetie Oliver is... Great scenery with the fences, so pretty. Blessings Francine.

Unknown said...

Awesome photo of the shadow to the right of the white fence!

Ginny Hartzler said...

Cute! Little Oliver looks like he is not too sure about that sticker! New Hope?? We live right beside a New Hope...is this one in Virginia? I went to the voting booth and couldn't find the right button. Then my friend went and she got so tangled up in the curtain that she had to yell for help...casting a senior vote for us is a nutty proposition.

Buttercup said...

Your pictures are great and of course, Oliver steals the show. So cute!

Lynne said...

I like the "ballot box stuffer" and all those Wisconsin outdoor farm scenes . . .

Ida said...

Hee, Hee on the Baby voter, too cute.
Very neat fence shots today. I liked the 1st shot with the shadow very much.

Cynthia said...

The baby is a doll. Get them started young, LOL. Gorgeous pictures, love that old fence

Nice rural Wisconsin fences.
Oliver looks a bit befuddled. Cute!

eileeninmd said...

Oliver is a cutie! I love your fence shots and the scenery! The shadow captures on the first fence shot are neat.. Great photos. Enjoy your evening.

Judy S. said...

Fun photos! No stickers here; we all vote by mail.

Bethany Carson said...

I really like the photo of the old barn! My grandparents have a barn at their place, and there is just something special about these impressive structures! Your grandson is certainly cute! Very nice family photo!

Debra Howard said...

Wow such beautiful fences, barns and countryside and especially that cutie between you.

Melody said...

Beautiful photos with gorgeous autumn leaves. The baby is super cute, what a sweetie.

DeniseinVA said...

The first photo you shared is darling! A family to be proud of and such a sweet little baby. Enjoyed this post tremendously.

Carola Bartz said...

Your grandson is so cute!!! That look on his face is priceless!
The first fence is interesting, what a unique pattern.

Tom said...

I love the Ralston Purina checkerboard logo! Tom The Backroads Traveller

Grandma Barb's This and That said...

Cutest voter I've ever seen! Love the shadows that first fence casts.

Amy Burzese said...

Sweet little face! I love, love your barns, and am so sorry that it has taken me so long to respond. I hope you join in again!
