Cantilever umbrella-broken string (Oakton Park in skokie)
Cantilever umbrella with LED lights. The string which opens and closes the umbrella broke. I had repaired the string last year, but it broke again. I started to try and repair it and I just don’t have the time or will. The umbrella is in good shape and is tan in color it just doesn’t open and close with the string being repaired.
