Snowflake Challenge #12

Set a goal.

I made a backyard bower some years ago. Here's a photo of Willow perched on the toprail of the west-facing fence; I'm sitting on the old daybed used for writing, napping and daydreaming. Well, our recent storms smashed it flat! So the goal is to rebuild it for 2023.

You can see the transverse roof supports. They snagged a lot of rain which bowed and eventually broke the structure, so the plan is to hang perpendicular supports from the bower's toprail to sluice the rain downwards. Wish me luck!

Good luck! I wish you nail guns and all of the structural support!

A bower is such a cool idea (and it looks like your cat enjoyed it) Good luck, and I hope the new one is stronger than ever!

Good skills to you and your rebuilding efforts. Hopefully this time the rain all sloshes off.
