Several years ago while beachcombing the shores of lake Erie early spring I came across this 24ft. long former dock piling that had washed up. I immediatley envisioned it in the front corner of my yard as sort of a street sign for the street I live on in Buffalo NY. Bird Ave. Click the image to enlarge.

This reclaimed 24 ft. high boat dock piling anchors the front corner of my yard on Bird. Ave. in Buffalo NY. I found the piece while scrounging the lake Erie shoreline for driftwood 10 years ago.
