A Very Strange Thing
October 10, 2008 – 3:46 pmIt’s a beautiful afternoon, the kids were out of school early, and I had a bunch of kids in my house.
I looked out the window and there were three young men walking up the street. One was carrying a very large wooden cross. It looked like it was made of 4×4 lumber. The cross was at least 8 feet tall, and could have been 10-12 feet tall. There was one wheel, like a caster, on the bottom of the cross so it wouldn’t drag.
I wish I would have gotten a picture of them, but they went by pretty fast and I have no idea where they went from here, or where they came from in the first place.
This is what they reminded me of:

I’m dying to know what they were doing. Was it a court punishment? A demonstration? Religious penance?
This is going to keep me awake.

I don’t think it would have been court ordered - separation of Church and State and all that - and I did wonder if I had imagined it, but then I thought about the wheel on the bottom. I knew at once what it was for, but I don’t know as I would have imagined that particular detail.
I think they were trying to settle that age-old arguement about crossing the street, personally. *snicker*
