Cornellians tried hard, but ultimately have failed in trying to recreate the
UMN Shoe Tree. Rather than watching where I was going on my walks to class, I noticed power lines with shoes thrown over. This practice was strikingly similar to the shoe tree practice on the west end of the Washington Ave. Pedestrian Bridge.
Odd.

Even right outside my apartment.

Yeah, I caused traffic to stop. Look at the bottom left corner of the picture.

Perfectly wasted shoes... as Eddie Vedder said, "Shoe the Shoeless."
I think this is in human nature. Yesterday I went out to our terrace and Anna or Sarah hung a pair of shoes on my drying rack just like these shoes are hung. I was going to take a picture for you but a HUGE gust of wind came and blew the drying rack into my neighbors terrace and we've only found one of the shoes.
