Thinking back to August 2011 when Hurricane Irene's effects struck our area, and remembering the loss of the old willows that my dad planted so many years ago. The first tree was broken in 2009. Then it was shattered again, taking the second one down as well.

We are all at the mercy of mother nature! Great photos Gere!
ReplyDeleteOh I always hate to see trees knocked down due to mother nature. Hope hurricane season is like last year's: uneventful!
ReplyDeleteI remember, vaguely a hurricane in the mid '50s that knocked a large cherry tree onto our back porch.
ReplyDeleteToo bad about the willow. Such a nice tree.
The willows were beautiful. Sad to see them go. I hope you have a non-eventful hurricane season. Thank you for linking up!
