I was driving in the vicinity of Howell, NJ, when I was in the process of turning a corner and noticed this roadside attraction out of the corner of my eye. I have the habit of spontaneously pulling over to the side of the road when I see something unusual, and I did just that … Read more
I was out for a walk along the Arroyo de los Chamisos Trail in Santa Fe when I noticed this uniquely shaped tar patch along the paved path. It’s almost like a drip, but there’s something about the thicker drip at left and the two drips that run down on the right that made me … Read more
