So, ever since moving here, I have found that I see the strangest things every single day here. Im going to start taking pictures of them and sharing them…this is my new column, Only in Alabama.
Here is a great one today. This house is about the only house on this road, except for a few trailers around it. This is a few streets over from my subdivision. Its obviously a huge house, very pretty…….and it has BARBED WIRE around the entire thing. Someone does live there, its not a builder house, they have cars in the driveway and satellite dishes.
But barbed wire? I dont think I could live in a house I had to lock myself in….or people out.





That’s weird. Maybe they are trying to keep their dog in?
That gate especially makes me think that maybe they plan to have goats in the yard to help with the lawn maintenance.
Can’t they afford a nicer looking fence with a huge Mc Mansion like that?
That just looks tacky!
Their like “keep your poor off my lawn”
the funniest part is that its not unsafe around here..its just redneck.
LOL. Why would someone spend that much money on a home and then have to build a gate around their house to keep people in or out? Go buy a home the same price in a beautiful SAFE neighborhood!
The house looks beautiful, but somehow living in a prison just wouldn’t do it for me. Very random.
that is too funny!!
Makes you go hmmmmm…. that’s for sure
LOL that’s so awesome! I wonder if they have a crazy aunt that they have locked upstairs in the attic, that tries to run away and kill people!! (That would account for the fence AND why they have no neighbors!!)
gesh. that is very odd. on the other hand I do carry my camera around everywhere you just never know right
its a security thing. i guess its whatever works, right? LOL
i have a 7ft wooden privacy fence all the way around my backyard. no one can get in. the door is even hidden…hehehe
That is hilarious.
Kim, glad you enjoyed the midget reference.
hee hee
That’s too funny. Wouldn’t it be fun if we could get a collection going from all 50 states?
Ok, and Libby cracked me up with the midget thing.
How weird is that? That house looks so out of place when viewed with the fence.
LOL That is definitely interesting. That what they make privacy fences for.
What a fun new column!! The barbed wire thing is really weird. It’s such a beautiful house but I couldn’t live with something like that!
That’s hilarious!! It’s like a midget prison fence – hahahahaha!!! (Sorry, hope no one’s offended by the term “midget”)
I’ll have to give my friend crap for this – he’s a big Alabama fan since he was raised there. We’re trying to convince him that MN is MUCH better/superior.
