The Shoe Tree

I can not remember who posted the shoes over the wires, but I commented about a Shoe tree in Geauga county. Found it today! I put a boot on it in 1999, but did not see it. It is down a country road!

How cool! And I just uploaded a shoe photo!

[Mickey Anderson]

Saw that!!

[Kathy]

What a great find!

[Allison Williams]

Now that is one unique monument. A fav!

[Maggiemae]

It always seems a waste to see these sort of things when so many children don't have shoes in some parts of the world!

[Mickey Anderson]

@maggiemae true but most of these are worn out and stinky, I know the boot I put there was!!

[Milanie]

How interesting how this has grown and grown - probably just started with 2 or 3. Rather unique for sure.

[KWind]

Very cool! Thanks for sharing.

And I thought it was the English that were eccentric.

Art comes in all shapes and sizes . Also it challenges us to think so whilst there are children without shoes perhaps we could help them?

@linnypinny @randystreat @allie912 @maggiemae @milaniet @kwind @laroque @pennystot A while back a Shoe company did a thing if you tweeted a pic of your feet they donated a pair to the needy, I believe it was a company called Tom's, my wife and I both did! I really do not know the whole story behind this tree, but it is a fun thing!!

[Lady Magpie (Heather)]

I could almost say what's afoot here. There's a stray shoe on the right trying to hot foot it. Interesting capture. FAV

Great find and capture

[Liz Hammond]

I love shoes, but I've never seen anything like this before. Just leaves you wanting to know why it started, how & why people still leave shoes there. Very fascinating.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Now that is something you don't see every day. Wonderful capture.

[Issi Bannerman]

Brilliant. What a cool thing to find!

[Lisa Poland]

That's fabulous! What a find!

[Beverly Parks]

Wow, that's so unique! Glad you went and found it so that we could see it.
