Looked out the window Friday morning to see the woods behind my house being plowed away. It was emotional, some family members handled it better than others.
The woods used to belong to Bonne Bell (think lip-smackers). Mr. Bell was a work out enthusiast, and besides having a work-out room within the factory, he also put in a two mile path within the woods for employees to use.
My family certainly utilized those woods over the last 14 years. With exercise, fort building, playing Indians and cowboys, exploring, tree climbing...it was nice to have.
It is so bizarre seeing the various paths we made as kids abruptly end into a huge open, nothingness.
Beth and I went across the creek, and came through the opposite side, so as to not interrupt the workers, but also to see how much damage was done. A lot of damage was done.
