I was running along 13th Ave E near Denny this morning and had entered one of those spacey mind states one often gets while running, especially before 8 am. Anyway, my oxygen-rich reverie was rudely disrupted when a low-hanging branch from an overgrown bush snagged my neck, impeded my motion, and drew blood. I offer this tale as a warning to those who walk or run on the east side of 13th between Denny and John: There dwells a malicious plant that cares not for your well-being.
