Clear storm damage from Wayne's garden in Seattle
Wayne, 73, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇺🇸 Seattle, Washington, United States50 views
I'm 73 and I have lived in this house in Seattle for 36 years. After the storm in October, two large branches and a fallen fence have blocked the back door and the garden path. I can no longer manage them myself because of my hip replacement.
The council has told me it will be six weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.

Sending strength, Wayne. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust
hope it all works out. This could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
hope it all works out, Wayne. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Seattle.
