   Great photo!
   Is the sign in front of a playground ?
   Or more iconically in front of a dump ?
   Thanks!
   Here’s an interesting article on the
   importance of play for humans and other
   types of animals.

   It was actually at the Eden Project in Cornwall. Thanks for the article, I’ll use that for something I think.

   Just looked up the Eden Project, and it looks gorgeous (and child friendly). Hope you blog it if you go there.
   As for the play article, I thought it was so neat that even wild animals take time out from their struggle for survival to kick back and fool around.
