Here’s what has been happening in my neck of the woods.
Last Friday, my son Evan moved out. It was time, I’m sure. He is a grown-up and has a decent job. I’m sure he has wanted to be on his own for a
while. I don’t blame him. I can remember when I was that age and
itching to get my adult life started. Still,
that doesn’t make it any easier for his old mother who will miss – already
misses – having him around.
I will just have to buck up and go visit him, like I visit
my daughter Carrie. Carrie and I have
done some good exploring in the area where she lives since she has been
there. And while I don’t have photography
in common with Evan, we’ll find something to do. Hey, we both like to eat and Worcester is
full of restaurants. Now and then, I may
even be able to twist his arm and get him to go to the Worcester Art Museum,
which is within walking distance of his apartment.
So Greg and I are official empty-nesters…except for Olive
the pug, of course.
The day we moved Evan to Worcester was a rainy
one. On my way home, I snapped a couple
of photos of fences. So I’m gonna link
on up to The Run*A*Round Ranch Report’s Good Fences #9 and post a couple of
pickets.

sweet yellow places and picket fences! good luck to your son!
The top image is a very nice rectangular theme. Good composition.
I love the pop of color on the awnings. If you do your job correctly(raising adults!) you get left behind. Sad but true!
Awwww...sorry you are missing your son. That's tough at first. The little yellow house with the white picket fence is a lovely place.
Sending you a hug as you adjust to your son being gone.
Some nice fence shots and pretty yellow houses. Not my color choice for a house but these look lovely.
Those are beautiful places! I'm sure it's hard for you, but glad to hear your son is striking out on his own.
White pickets just might be my all time favorite. Maybe.
This mother's heart holds a place for your empty nest.
I like both of these, especially the second one.
I love the second...such a cute little place.
It is always a sad feeling when the kids go home...even now.
I like the different heights of the posts in that first fence.
I know it must be hard to see your son go. But like you've had with our daughter, you can now look forward to having different kinds of adventures with your son.
I bet Olive is glad to have all your attention now. :-)
Both lovely picket fences
Lovely captures!
Another chapter of life :)
I guess I could say Congrats on your empty nest although I do know how you're feeling at the moment. It will get better soon. :) Great picket fences. The little house is cute.
roots and wings....i'm sure he is ready!! love those fences, isn't it amazing what we are finding or perhaps what we were missing before t started this???
The second shot- cute little home!
That cute little house can't be for sale for a long time - so beautiful, and the fence is wonderful!
