Tree Down

Last night we went over to friends house to eat dinner&have some drinks. Around 11pm we called it a night. We packed the little man up who was sleeping in his pack-n-play. The friends happen to live in the same neighborhood as we do and as we were approaching the beginning of the 'hood ,where we live, we drove straight into the flashing lights of the State Police. We pulled into our driveway and Adam walked over to see what was up. I, of course, followed because I am way too nosey not to know whats going on. Much to our amazement we found(or rather the State Police) found a tree had fallen into the road.

See the rock wall? Tree not ours.

So here it is 11pm and we have a fallen tree. Technically, the tree is NOT on our property. Our property stops at a rock wall. The tree was on the other side of the rock wall, which the town owns. Of course, when something bad happens(like a tree down at 11pm) the town says its our property and our problem. But when the town wants to do something to the side of the road then its their property. So instead of going through all that Adam took out an ax and started axing away at it. Some cool kids drove by and stopped to help move bigger pieces. I was just standing there with little man&the dog. Anyway, about 30 minutes later there was nothing touching the road and we called it a night.

On another note I went and changed my blog name&url. No reason other than I rushed to think of a name while making it and I like this name better.

What is Queens Fort? "The Queen’s Fort is located deep in the woods in Exeter RI and has for many years been viewed as part of the Narragansett stone fort system and associated with the King Philip Wars." In other words, Indians hid back there when they were gettin' their land taken away by us. I live across the street from it. It's really neat to take a hike back there and carve your name in a tree.

Queens Fort is back there!
