the path to the gate into the front yard used to
Look like this, slate pathway with mowed weeds, grass and a lot of pine needles and we are
left with this. (we hope the neighbor will soon put back his privacy fence which is on the ground
we have a six foot chain link fence, that was there when we bought the house.
Due to 5 children living in that house, about 15 years ago, we ask if we could put privacy fence there and they agreed. They moved and the new owner fenced the rest of the yard and it has been a blessing.
The privacy fence has fallen down in 2 prior storms and he put it right back up.
His fence is leaning on the chain fence and we can't straighten it until he puts his back up. It is his fence, he replaced it after Irma tore down the whole fence.
The storm left 2 portions of the back side fence like this
except it was not all the way down like this until the tree people threw the pipe and 4x4 wood that used to hold a swing on top of it.
For now, I have barricaded this by dragging the metal swing, a trash can, and you can't see it but i built a fence of old boards to block access to keep this beloved dog from going through the hole.
I am done working in the yard.
My husband is refusing adamantly to let me hire a repair person so this may stay like
this until we die.
Beau is sad over his shady yard becoming a one shade part yard. from noon until sundown, there is brilliant and still hot Florida sun, and the entire kitchen, doors and windows must be kept closed because of the heat it brings. our day are still upper 80's until sundown at 7:30
I am sad I can no longer see out the windows and enjoy the sun through the blinds shining in my kitchen. Soon December will bring cool air and I can open the blinds and enjoy the heat the sun brings.
and now we wait for rain... we are back to no rain at all and we have black beach sand. This is the 3rd fence that was crushed by the tree, its on the opposite side in the only shade we have.
Bob propped it up with a limb and a pole

So the tree people wrecked part of the fence! Oh, if only there was some way you could have someone to come over and help!!
That's so sad that Bob says no to letting you get help. No wonder you're saying you are done. 😟
