Along the River Walk
Remember the hollyhocks from July 12th's post? I didn't mention that they were right outside my window. I also captured them just in time. . . .

Same Location
To my surprise, when I looked outside today, huge metal jaws were devouring that very same bush. Soon it disappeared along with the tree, the mound of earth, the roses, and the other greenery. What's coming next? I'm not sure, but my guess is . . . a couple of parking spaces. [Later note: Thankfully, they will be making a new planter rather than parking spaces. For the moment, we're looking at level dirt.]
If they knock on your door, don't answer.
ReplyDeleteHow awful. Remove the beauty for a couple of parking spaces. I would call that bull dozer a 'weapon of mass destruction'. MB
ReplyDeleteNow don't it always seem to go
ReplyDeleteThat you don't know what you got till it's gone
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot..............
BUMMER
I am sorry to see it. Another lack of consideration by those people to the community.
ReplyDeleteThat is sad. They could have at least saved them to replant somewhere else.
ReplyDeletePlants are living things too!
Oh drats... Mother Nature being nasty is one thing... humans being nasty is always sooo disappointing.
ReplyDeleteThat's so disappointing! Ick.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe it. That makes me want to cry!
