Young people, if you don’t want people to think you’re muggers, maybe don’t stand in a curve about 100 yards from the trail entrance in an area with fencing in either side at 7am in 40 degree weather where there’s fencing on either side of the trail blocking escape from ambush!
Seriously I guess only the very young and stupid would choose that specific spot to draw a big elaborate chalk drawing and NOT realize the obvious potentialities for easy pickings from the early morning runners?
Like the whole time I’ve lived here every time I run by that spot I think huh what a good place for An Ambush and lo! this day there were two people loitering there at dawn, one obviously the lookout and the other standing easy & hipshot, clearly the frontman.
Your correspondent thought about turning back but the heck with that I said to myself, the sun is up and the two of them are not a match for me and Viola as long as they don’t have a gun also I had my hand on my 911 button on my watch.
They passed me later as I headed back, going deeper into the trail. I gave them a good look in case they come back for robbing but it’s not like my face blind ass could pick them out of a lineup.
Anyway here is the smol doin a trot.
I have no idea what they were up to and I was so curious I almost asked when I passed them later if they realized they were basically in the exact spot muggers would choose but decided not in case they are international assassins or something.
