GOD
SPARE
THE
TREE
Fallen, but never forgotten.
....and so it goes, a weekend of storms racked havoc in random places.
.... and we had a place to hang this-

I appreciate every moment you gather and scatter here. This is a wee bit early but, Enjoy your Fourth of July celebrations and be safe.

I noticed a large, fallen, uprooted tree at a parking lot just yesterday. We had a torrential downpour with strong destructive winds ....sad to see 'em damaged.
A new chew toy? Oh my...gigantic!!!!
Wow, Rusty DOES have a big chew toy!
Hello, Karen
The storms have been wreaking havoc all around. I am happy for Rusty and the giant chew toy. Great fence shot. Happy 4th of July to you and yours!
On that is a mighty big chew toy.Your words made my heart sing. Beautiful. Hug B

Hi Karen, so sorry for the fallen tree. But like you said, a place to hang your sign. Making something nice out of the misfortune. Love your sweet pooch with his huge chew toy!!
Wishing you a happy 4th of July too.
Hugs, cm
Have a happy and safe 4th Of July.
Thankfully me the tree missed the fence, stay safe. Had a giggle about the giant chew toy.
Have a wonderful fourth (and it looks like you have some firewood for winter)
oh no, that's a big limb! rusty scored! have a safe and happy 4th, love your sign too!
Love the quote!
A chew toy!!! That will keep him busy a while.
Glad it was a tree and not your home.
I am glad no one was injured. Falling trees are so sad to see. We are suppose to get storms with high winds. Our youngest Hannah has a birthday tomorrow (24) and she and her beau Bret went to the Royal Gorge to take a helicopter ride. I hope the wind is calmer where they are. The words you chose work so beautifully with this post. Happy 4th of July to you and yours! Please be safe!
How sad to lose your tree. That's some chew toy though. Happy 4th, still celebrating (Red, White & Blue).
Love that last quote, Karen! Have a good July 4th!!
I hope the havoc is over and that you and yours have a wonderful celebratory weekend.
Hurrah for Rusty!
Better than having wolfhounds gnaw your expensive and already repaired once wooden stairs...
