To 'stain' or not to 'stain'?

OK, so i 'revitalized' a old, grimy fence that runs along my back yard. Used my 2000psi pressure washer to remove all the 'gray dirt'..so now, am undecided...should i bother staining it? i believe it is cedar and matches up with the newer fencing i put in place along the sides. Thing is, i have no control over the other side of the fence so staining it may not necessarily protect it..rather, it'll 'look good'.

Here are some pix of my weekend 'fence restoration project'.

total time: 5-6hrs of pressure washing.
