When I was in Tennessee, Dax told me I needed to post more rock wall pictures.   Little did I know so many people liked them! 

It took a little while because I wanted to get pics of walls I hadn't walked past before. 

This is a direction we have only recently started walking. 



Many of these are in the middle of nothing.  No houses, no sign of who might own the place.

The one below is intriguing.  You can tell if you look closely, the wall goes from being an older wall, a tad bit "rumpled" to a wall that has recently been fixed up and ironed out and ever so slightly taller.  There is nothing around there - no house or anything. If you look very carefully, you can see a mailbox far down the street.  It's quite a distance.  (cue the Twilight Zone music...)



This next one still had some really lovely colors in front of it. 



Those are all wannabe trees.  If no one cuts them down, they'll be huge in no time.  Right now they're low enough to the ground to still have leaves.

Because I really liked how it looks, let's keep looking at it...



Of course some of the walls are almost not walls anymore.  They are slowly becoming little rock heaps.  This one isn't there yet.  Give it a few more years though.



This next one blows my mind.  There is NOTHING around it.  Yet it's a perfectly straight wall in the middle of nowhere.  Looks to be in excellent condition (unlike the wall above).



And last of all we have this one, winding its way up the hill going to... nowhere. 



This was all farm land around here and a couple hundred years ago there were almost no trees.  Amazing how fast the forest comes back when it's left to grow.  And amazing how these walls abound. 

Hopefully more pics soon.  I think now I have to get in my car and drive out to find the walls.
