I hope you have a fine and Happy Fence Friday, and that your minutes, hours and day are calm and pleasing. Hurrah for the coming weekend. This was early yesterday morning, just after sunrise. The bridge is over one of the residential canals in Mandurah, WA, leading to the marina and Dolphin Quay.

I hope everyone has a delightfully Happy Fence Friday. The fence is not to keep the wheel in, but is actually next to a railway line which carries freight to the port. There are many crossing places so the park and wheel are easy to get to. It's a lovely spot, just across from Fishing Boat Harbour in Fremantle.

The Round House in Fremantle, the first permanent building in the Swan River Colony (which became Western Australia), seen from High Street. It was built in 1830 as a prison. (Press Z to biggen it up.)

May I wish you all a Happy Fence Friday. Stay warm or cool, depending on your location and preferences. And believe that things can only get better.

Have a great and glorious Happy Wednesday Wall and a fine rest of the week. This is the outer wall of the former Australian Sailing Museum in Mandurah. The museum was designed and built by Rolly Tasker, a legendary figure in the international ocean yacht racing world, and opened in 2008. Unfortunately on his death in 2012 there was no-one who wished to take on the task of running what was a delightful museum and many of the exhibits were either transferred to the West Australian Museum in Perth and Fremantle or were sold at auction. It is now a WOTSO workspace available for hire by businesses.

May I wish you a Happy Fence Friday. I hope you all remain safe and contented wherever you are. This fence around the Cape Naturaliste light was merely decorative on the day I took this, the weather being sunny and calm. On some days, though, it is quite a dangerous undertaking to walk around the balcony, the wind coming in from the Indian Ocean can be very strong indeed. Not my idea of fun ...

May I wish you a Happy (and joyful) Fence Friday. This fence may be small, but it is very important in preventing these creations from wandering in the road. Have a great day and a pleasant and restful weekend.

A Happy Wednesday Wall to everyone (with the added bonus of a bent fence on the right). I hope your day and the rest of your week are OK and you are keeping warm/cool depending on your location.

Have a delightfully Happy Wednesday Wall. I hope your day and the remainder of your week are pleasing to you. Here it is rather too hot, being mid to high 30s Celsius each and every day. It gets a little tiresome, I'm afraid. Still, it *is* summer, after all ...

A Happy Fence Friday to all. I hope your day is a good one and your weekend is pleasing. This fence is seen through the door of a free Purple CAT bus as we passed through the streets of Perth.
