Still today you can go there and find multiple pairs hanging from lines that run parallel to a train trestle that runs about 50 ft over the creek. It's about a football field to safety if you need to make it back to the bank if a train comes along. The shoes are meant to signify leaving the small town and not coming back....to live. Mine hung there through one winter.Ragged Grinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17753105763358767807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-2245330919234267482015-01-07T19:30:41.083-05:002015-01-07T19:30:41.083-05:00Goneferal....myth busted ; )Goneferal....myth busted ; )Rothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11329750481399948095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-91258481601753365532015-01-07T18:04:00.387-05:002015-01-07T18:04:00.387-05:00I just saw some today thrown over an overpass I ta...I just saw some today thrown over an overpass I take on my bike rides. I used to live in a bad area of town that had them everywhere. In that case, it could have meant murder, drugs, or gangs, all three were present.
