A few weeks back (here) I wrote about
the view I have from where I sit at work.
Black jumper Praia collection - Beige cardigan Forever 21 - Anne Klein animal print flats - Neiman Marcus black tote bag |
Since I sit in a corner I have a view of the street.
I get to do a lot of people watching as I keep the shades open.
I have respect and love for old buildings and the Spanish style homes in
the area so it was sad to see how the for sale/rent sign was taken down.
I could only expect the worst.
View from the office |
As I had imagined, the house torn down little by little.
Which was a pain to watch.
Specially when it came to the Peruvian style wood balcony.
I know, I know at the end it's just a house.
I saw and heard as the entire thing was taken apart.
I kept looking out the window all day long.
Could not concentrate.
The house is now gone.
But there's this huge tree left.
As I grow older I have more and more love, appreciation
and admiration for nature.
This tree stands alone and I get teary eyed as I write because
I can only imagine the worst: that it will be taken down and that I will
most likely have to see every single moment of it.
On the other hand,
I can only hope for this lot to be turned into a parking lot
and that the tree is left for its glorious shade.

so sad.....I hate to see that and that tree is gorgeous - I too appreciate nature more and more as I age - LOVE nature!!
That is so sad! I too get all broken up when I see beautiful things torn down, especially trees that are older than us all.
This is very sad. I hope the keep the tree.
