Silent Sunday- Art me in the Garden

I'm once again not going to be completely silent- I have to explain 

so you'll catch the before and after- 

the "after" being my mother's day pressie; a new bridge.......

So here's the old bridge, which we liked well enough at first..but the longer we looked at it, 

the more it looked like a dock- which is not the effect we wanted at ALL!

So, here's the "before"

And here's the "after"

My sweet hubby rebuilt the old bridge using the old planks and cleverly
building a new base to support the arch.
The only question now, is what color to stain it?

OK, now I'll resume with being properly silent for my silent Sunday post......I promise ;)
