Last night the Porta Hedge rolled through northern Pennsylvania, across Ohio, Indiana and Illinois into Wisconsin on I90 and I94. As we drive farther into the Midwest, the road has straightened considerably and the Porta Hedge is able to travel through locations much faster than we originally anticipated.
In an attempt to keep small birds and insects from becoming lodged (and perishing) in the branches of the Porta Hedge as it travels down the interstate at speeds close to 70 MPH, the crew secured a tarp over the front of the Hedge (Christo Hedge?). Alas, our plan backfired! As the tarp flapped on its sides, it tore out a small patch of branches on the driver side, leaving an unsightly bald spot on the Hedge that we will repair later today.
