As we wait in the bushes to embrace their heavy garments, the trespassers may think, cuddling themselves in their warm garments, ‘what a carefree people this was, a people much like ourselves before the cold.’ The trespassers idealize us, unaware of the many serious life lessons the recreationist would have been confronted with on any given visit: - No feeding the geese. If a man doesn’t know how to eat, he isn’t fit to teach lesser beings. - Pick up your trash. The park is a place where your children vicariously display your own values, but cutely. It is not a dumping ground. - Keep off the grass. Because Sunday is not Sin-day. Take your blankets into the woods for that kind of summer fun. ↗
