Japanese Gardens

ouch!

19 years ago

Just before the winter snows flew. I went for a backyard walk and recieved an unpleasant surprise. After a night of high winds, Mother Nature clearly took aim at my little forest bridge with a 30 foot tree and cleanly nailed one end of it.

I do believe fate or karma has decided my first project of the spring.

All I know is its a flipping mess and means I need to redo my bridge pilings come spring.
