wall is supported by 8 ∞ live saplings cut at a 10' height... trimmed orbed atop the posts have budded... I started cutting 4/20/16 after many months of being with the site/space and the basic wall concept that preceded the present turmoil with our border with Mexico-written with 2019 Vernal Equinox entry with blog… and now this year, 2020 a wall with a bigger virus and bigger gov’t controls… walls we build within ourselves and others and have been around for me since crib time I'll assume and further back than any of us, perhaps since man stood atop a mountain or with one side of a raging river...

wall marks transitional states...
there are another 8 ∞ live woody Liana (vine) sp. that I've cut back from about 14' above ground... they grew to the tops of an elder Eastern Hemlock Tsuga canadensis on the left and an elder Silver Maple Acer saccharinum on the right, each 2' in diameter… I've bound, and drawn, with the trimmed Liana giving support to the wall and providing line, shape line and form to the wall with their freshly pruned new growth. the wall will provide a new dynamic to the S<>N West side property fence already in place helping to provide structural support with it's metal grid construct. the wall will provide habitat for birds, insects and other critters as well provide a wind and an energy break with the homeowners' fire pit area about 30' East of the wall. more of the remaining undergrowth will be cut away with some being used in creating the wall. I'll be adding more with it as it develops and the homeowner, their family and friends will participate creatively with wall adding pots, pans, cups and color glass bottles, bed stand, anything wood, metal, stone, plants, cloth, feathers, etc. and free passage to the other side ...
