Description
A late afternoon sun, beach-tired feet and a long hike in cool sunshiny Pensacola Florida. Loads of wind breaker fences to aid in sand - keeping...The aqua-blue and green water in this Gulf Bay made this a most lovely visit!
for fun..........The value of fences and the metaphorical significance of a fence, both positive and negative, has been extensively utilized throughout western culture. A few examples include:
"Good fences make good neighbors." a proverb quoted by Robert Frost in the poem "Mending Wall"
"A good neighbour is a fellow who smiles at you over the back fence, but doesn't climb over it." Arthur Baer
"There is something about jumping a horse over a fence, something that makes you feel good. Perhaps it's the risk, the gamble. In any event it's a thing I need." William Faulkner
"Fear is the highest fence." Dudley Nichols
"To be fenced in is to be withheld." Kurt Tippett
"What have they done to the earth? / What have they done to our fair sister? / Ravaged and plundered / and ripped her / and bit her / stuck her with knives / in the side of the dawn / and tied her with fences / and dragged her down." Jim Morrison, of The Doors
"Don't Fence Me In" Cole Porter
"You shall build a turtle fence." Peter Hoekstra
"A woman's dress should be like a barbed-wire fence: serving its purpose without obstructing the view." Marilyn Monroe
