The Fence Out Back

We live in a small-town neighborhood, with houses on two sides of us and across the street, but out back it's a different story.

Behind the backyard fence is a farmer's field. 

We're country people at heart and this open space makes town living feel more like country living.

But, things are changing as they often do and this property is for sale. It will probably be turned into a housing subdivision. 

We'll have to say goodbye to "our" field one day. 

But until then, we'll observe the birds and butterflies it attracts, watch the clouds move across the open sky, enjoy the evening sunsets, and count our blessings to have had this field out back for 20 years. 

And if we ever get backyard neighbors ... well, we already have a Good Fence.
