Flying Footwear

Around the corner from my house, a pair of shoes hangs idly from the telephone wires. I pass these shoes every few days and often pause to wonder how exactly they got stuck up there (apparently abandoned shoes seem to puzzle me a lot.. see June post "Troubled Sole"). This particular pair of dangling shoes reminds me of the movie Big Fish, though I don't expect to find a community of people running around barefoot here. After several months of passing by these shoes, I finally decided to take a picture, and as such, here it is.

I've heard that people used to put shoes over the powerlines to mark crack houses in neighborhoods. Easier to remember than house numbers I suppose.
