Columbus
I passed this on some random road in New York state last winter. After thinking about it for a minute or two, I drove back to snap a photo. With Columbus Day approaching, I figured it would be a good time to share it. Kurt Vonnegut provides the caption.
“1492. As children we were taught to memorize this year with pride and joy as the year people began living full and imaginative lives on the continent of North America. Actually, people had been living full and imaginative lives on the continent of North America for hundreds of years before that. 1492 was simply the year sea pirates began to rob, cheat, and kill them.” – Kurt Vonnegut
