This bird house
found a home on our tree many years ago
when my father in law moved in with us.
As they say on "American Pickers"
it was a "bundle".
We packaged my father in law
2 cats
and a bird house.
I was informed by my wife while I was on the boat
that we lost another tree.
When I came home 2 days ago I was met with this.
The bird house didn't stand a chance.
I couldn't help but think of the immortal words of Howard Cosell
as he called the Foreman/Frazier fight
"DOWN GOES FRAZIER!!"
My apologies to all non boxing fans
who have no idea what I am talking about.

Sorry u lost the house ! It's kinda funny how we get attach to something's and the memories behind them !
Ugh, can the house be salvaged?...
I remember Howard and his distinctive voice. Now ask me about Evander Hooooooooooolyfiiiieeeeeeld.
Love him! Although he should have retired many moons ago. Just sayin.
Haha I can hear Howard now! What a shame another tree and such a nice bird house! Have a wonderful weekend!
Brought up a boxing fan. My father, my brother, my husband. But there's no good heavy weight boxing anymore. It's like a lost era. SNIFF.
i'm clueless.....but we're watching american pickers right at this exact moment....."breaking the ice"
This BLOG post is pure poetry... the images and the words. Thanks for this.
Dave says down goes Frazier to Charlie all the time. Ha!
Oh, I hate it when I lose trees!
Smiling, I do remember that comment by Howard. Was the bird house totaled?
