pegkerrI took my usual walk across the Stone Arch Bridge for exercise today. About 1/3 of the way across, I came across about a half a dozen young men, probably college age or so. They were gathered around a blue flowered couch. A couch. On the Stone Arch Bridge. I ask you. That in itself was quite an undertaking to get it there, as the Stone Arch Bridge is rather long. Each was dressed in nice slacks and an oxford shirt, and they were wearing identical striped silver and maroon ties.
One man was sitting on the couch holding a large plastic penguin (the penguin was also sporting the same silver-maroon tie). They took a picture of him, and as I walked by, they seemed to be taking turns: each took a turn sitting on the couch, holding the penguin, as a picture was taken.
I suppose if I had stopped to ask they would have given me an explanation, but perhaps it is more fun to speculate. A fraternity thing, maybe. What else would prompt them to do such a thing?
