I took my camera with me today for my afternoon dog walk into the woods. We walked past one of those very tall radio towers that seem to spring up in the middle of nowhere. We walked all around the tower, and I was interested in the various guide wires and tie-down cables that sink deep into the ground and hold the tower steady.

My dog was interested in smelling about for where the deer had been. Her nose took me around the backside of the tower fence where I found a placard laying on the ground. It apparently had been attached to the fence, but either time or vandals had torn it loose and the sign now sat quietly on the ground. Taking notice of just what the sign read, I took a quick photo and got the heck out of there. No telling what kind of strange illnesses my dog and I are going to get after being too close to the radio tower!
