Hike

The earth is what we all have in common.

When Leslie and I hiked the bog we came to this place on the path.  After looking at the marker for a moment, Leslie said, "Where in the world else would you go?!"

I concur that it was pretty apparent that the bridge on the path was the next part of the route hikers would want to follow.

However, if we expand this beyond our own lived experiences, this sign could mean other things.  For instance, if you are billy goat, it might indicate that this bridge is safe to cross.  Or if you are a hobo, this symbol means you should be ready to defend yourself.

If you are a hobo billy goat, I guess you can go over the bridge, but be ready to defend yourself, too.
