When Nature Takes Back (concurrently published on myLot)

We have an old shed that K and I built from a kit 28 years ago when we first moved to this house. The shed has weathered several hurricanes, winter storms, and various other weather phenomena since its construction. Time and nature have taken their toll on the structure, though, in slow more insidious ways. 

Now, vines are growing on the sides and across the roof. Their roots are pushing into the shed's interior as can be seen in the photo. 

We don't use the shed to store much these days. A wheelbarrow with a flat tire, some rarely used gardening tools, remnants of wood from long finished projects, various other odd bits of flotsam and jetsam are all that inhabit the place. 

K keeps suggesting we tear it down and put up a new shed, or buy a prefab shed. I prefer the idea of letting nature take its course for reclaiming the shed as we don't really need one these days anyway. 

She will eventually win. It's only a matter of time. 

In the meantime, I will track the progress of the vines.
