duck tree
so a passel of us are vacationing with my auntie p in maine. we went to echo lake. the kids went swimming. i'm allergic to both sand and water. so i took off down a trail. it went up. pretty steeply. i was alone. and in shape from skating to work every day. it's ten miles. each way. well work is ten miles away. but the train station is only 1.1. yeah, ftt. anywho, i hoofed it up the mountain. found some ladders. weird. and some folks with dogs. giggled when i thought of the dog's being carried up the ladders by their owners. at one point i was approaching a tree fallen over the path. i happened to look down and noticed a sign. duck, tree. giggled again. i guess some folks hike with their eyeballs on their feets. and not on where they are or where they're going. so i guess there needs to be a sign on the ground warning about a tree at head height.
