Boom Box

Day 311: I've featured this sign or one of its several companions a few times, but every time I see it I either think of Angry Birds or wonder how many of my readers could find something similar even if it did happen to be behind a fence (which this obviously is not). I also can't imagine anyone with a camera stumbling into proximity and failing to take a photograph. It's certainly not an everyday sight and definitely trumps cute little squirrels and chipmunks, although I have been known to crawl around on my hands and knees behind it, examining lichens. To the best of my knowledge, there have been no mishaps associated with the "boom box" in the distance, and I'm sure the healthiness of the surrounding forest is a testament to the relative safety of the area. Still, a measure of precaution is prudent when entering these woods, so don't be making campfires in unapproved locations unless you like your marshmallows toasted very dark.
