Tragedy at Wallaroo

[strongmanmike]

Sad day today...we came home to this in the back paddock this afternoon :sad:

The Dancing Alien is no more (http://www.pbase.com/strongmanmike2002/image/154119302/original)

Orion's Tree is no more (http://www.pbase.com/strongmanmike2002/image/154119307/original)

Oh well time marches on in this evolving Universe of ours...and so do the Termites :doh:

Have to find another prop now :sadeyes:

Mike
Also a good reminder why we need to be careful around old dead trees!!!...and get our homes checked for Termites

[FlashDrive]

:lol:

Never mind Mike ......plant a couple of more trees now ....:P

Col.....:D

[LewisM]

The wind will forever be the bane of Mike's existance :)

Beautiful relic now gone. Shame.

[h0ughy]

winter firewood Mike?

[strongmanmike]

OI, it's not funny :sad::sad::sad:





Funny it wasn't very windy today :question:...she needed a dome :P



Unfortunately we don't have a slow combustion stove or fireplace in this house - bloody shame :doh:

[RobF]

You should be counting you're lucky stars it wasn't close to the dome or the house?! Sad to see it gone but.

[iceman]

That is a shame. Dead trees make such great subjects.

[sheeny]

Shame. They had character.

I was thinking the obvious as well for a silver lining... at least you have firewood, but you don't have a wood heater or stove? Tragedy alright.

Winter solstice bonfire then, Mike. Invite everyone round to commemorate and remember the trees as you send them off in a blaze of glory and a few ritualistic ales...

;)

You're gonna have to find yourself a nice rock!

Better spray the sh|t out of it and make sure those buggers don't follow in with you. :eyepop:

[strongmanmike]

Yes, I guess so...I would have been home to see it fall but my wifes car had issues and I had to go out and take it to the mechanics - doh



You bet, lets pray that line of trees on the ridge at Lostock don't fall...what would you do :eyepop: :lol:



Now THAT's a good idea Al :question:....the ales that is :whistle: :cheers:



Ahhhh a rooock...once upon a time I used to looove rocks (http://www.pbase.com/strongmanmike2002/image/154124793/original) :lol:

That's a bummer it came down.

Just leave it there and watch how many Blue Tongues will make a home out of next summer.

[BlackWidow]

I think you will just have to Branch out and find other nice props :rofl:

[strongmanmike]

I thought it best to leave them something to eat away from the house :D



Yes, lots of Blue Tongues around here, seen several over the past year...and two Brown Snakes too :scared3:



That wood be a good idea, leaf it with me, I'll need to go out on a limb and see what I can find...I'm sure something will twig eventually :question:
