I Think You Got All the Usefulness Out of That Wooden Post,
Let’s Replace It With A New One.
My wife and I have been taking up walking as a form of regular exercise. We often do hiking in the foothill on wooded trails in nature. By getting out there in the forested areas, I can see trees that have fallen over time and are just rotting with time. This is normal.
Wood will rot and return to the earth, that is just how things work out. The tree has a life, it dies, and decays. When I see this, I think of all the rotted wood that I come across over the years. Not the wood in the forest but the wood used in building. If not protected against decay, wood will eventually breakdown.
I saw this short post used to support a retaining wall in Carmichael yesterday, I think it has reached its maximum live expectancy. Time to let this one go and call a contractor to replace this retaining wall post.
