Evolution

Fence

Some structures happen by design, after careful thought and consideration. Others evolve over time. I think that's what happened with this fence. I can imagine this series of conversations.

"Honey, let's put up one of those rustic split-rail fences." "Great idea!"

And a few years later, "That split-rail fence just doesn't provide any privacy! What can we do?" "How about a wood trellis fence? It will still let the breeze come through."

And later still, "Dear, that fence doesn't block enough of the busy street noise. Let's make it longer".

A week later, "It's still not long enough."

And finally, "Sweetums—"  "No more!"
