This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Are we sure it's not a sign for the area immediately behind this tiny tree?

Interestingly, the tree looks different. I wonder if they intentionally keep the tree small and swap it periodically. (Hopefully sending the old tree to a nice farm upstate.)

They do! They also sometimes decorate the current tree for Christmas.

The area behind it is Waterfront Park. That's the Willamette river on the other side of that grass.
