Moss Catcher

I think Selma shall never run out of fences for the Friday Fences blog hop,

and many of these old iron works of art also serve as moss catchers,

and that just adds to the southernness.

Linking to Friday Fences and City Daily Photo Blogs

WELCOME!

Selma is among the oldest cities in Alabama and has the largest contiguous historic district. It is known for its Civil War and Civil Rights history. The Battle of Selma was one of the last fought in the War Between the States, and the town was a center for the Voting Rights Movement in the 1960s. Today, with a population of about 20,000, Selma is the largest town in the western Black Belt region. The Black Belt, named for the color of its soil, stretches across Central Alabama from Mississippi to Georgia.
