The Scene of the Crime

We thought it was thunder, but it was only a little rain cloud. Then we heard all this crashing. NOT THUNDER!!! The big oak tree is the culprit. He was caught trying to vandalize the arbor in the back yard. Here's the incriminating evidence:

The vandal dropped a 30 foot limb onto our arbor. Can I just say how impressed we are with Phillip's construction capability. The arbor is still standing!
Unfortunately the evil vandal littered my brand new wooden walkway with almost all of my spinners. There are still 4 left standing, the last 20 are laying bruised and battered upon the ground.

The vandal even killed my windchimes. These are still intact.
Sadly, the ladybug was only left with one chime. I should probably mention here that the ladybug has been suffering from old age and only had two chimes and her glass marbles left. As you can see she lost her marbles, too. Poor old ladybug!
Maybe this was just the tree's way of helping add to our rustic arbor and redecorate.



Thanks a lot, Mr. Oak Tree. You better watch out we have the sheriff on the lookout for you. You can't hide forever.
