The Last Gate Standing

 


AFTER MILTON THE FENCE WAS MISSING 2 SECTION


AFTER THE BOBCAT AND 4 MEN REMOVED THE TREE AND ALL THE HIBICUS BUSHES AND 3 SECTIONS OF FENCE

 IT LOOKED LIKE THIS AFTER I REMOVED THE ONE SECTION YOU SEE MISSING AND FROM THIS AND

THIS



TO THIS


 IT TOOM ME A WHILE BUT I CLEARED IT. NOW WHAT TO DO WITH THE GATE. MILTON TOOK DOWN SOME OF IT, TREE PEOPLE TOOK DOWN SOME AND I REMOVED THE REST DOWN TO THE GATE .I am thinking I will plant a purple passion plant and cover it with flowers for the butterflies.

  1. To cover it with plants to attract butterflies seems like the perfect solution to me. It will be a gift from the hurricane in place of the misery it has caused you so far.

  8. About the gate, that's my philosophy too: when life leaves a mess, decorate it with flowers. I'm anxious for Spring to start decorating the messes Hurricane Helene left. Flowers, especially vines, will be a good choice I think.
    I like your new header. Looks nice.
    Blessings. ☃️

  13. I am late today. I took Bryan to the doctor. He has a nasty sinus infection. We are waiting for the pharmacy to call to tell us they are ready.
    I say you need to take you iPad out to the gate I bet you could create a lovely piece of art

  14. That’s what I would do to the gate. I like to reuse wooden fence or gates into garden art. Planting some flowers that attract butterflies, humming birds and bees would be lovely.

  21. I think covering it with a flowering plant/vine is a perfect idea. I want to see it when it is covered with blooms and butterflies.
