And the wall....

After leaning and bulging and bowing, the brick facing to our front (side?) flower bed finally gave way last night under the duress of a thunderstorm and high winds. The good news is that all of the bricks appear to be in good shape, so I should be able to reuse them in putting the wall back up. The bad news is that the gutter downspout looks like it might need to be redirected as it may have been part of the cause of this disaster. At any rate, it looks like I might be learning some masonry this year. What fun!
