My route to and from work takes me past the Washington County Fairgrounds in Hillsboro Oregon. When it’s time for an event, you often see hay bales as boundary markers.

Technically there are “No Tresspassing” signs posted all around the fairgrounds. I doubt, however, that anyone really would have objected had they seen me walk the ten feet from the sidewalk to the hay bale for this shot.
