That Darn Cat


Gus surveying his handiwork.
The big dead tree supporting the tree house platform has lost it's second big limb, this time to kitty cat hi-jinks. Gus is naturally very proud of his accomplishment. It's hard to see in this picture, but the tree house platform is covered with sawdust from woodpeckers hollowing out nests in the remaining trunk.

The plastic bucket is covering a steel surveyor's stake. Ten years ago we had rope hanging from this tree and the swinging path took the munchkins very near this post. I put the bucket over it to mitigate any damage should someone fall on it. Kids fell, the rope broke, but the bucket was never tested. As far as I know.

Update February 2017 replaced missing picture.
