Devastation to Willow tree




On sunday when we had driven into the city hoping to go to the Art Gallery we had passed a restaruant in St Kilda Road called The Willows. We had patronised this restaurant many years ago and it had two enormous willow trees in the front garden. Well not so now the storm on saturday had snapped one off near the base..possibly hit by lightening. We stopped for a closer look on our way home on monday...a lot of the branches had been cleared away but you can see where it struck the front fence and the stump that was left shattered. So lucky to have fallen forward and not back onto the marquee!
