Trail Signs

Recently while I was looking for trails in Connecticut area, I came to know the signs used to indicate a trail. It is very interesting.

1. A trail is marked by 5” vertical lines painted on trees, rocks etc.
2. Two parallel vertical lines are used to indicate turns
3. If a left line is higher than the right line, it is a left line and vice versa
4. A vertical line on top of other marks the end of trail

***It is very important to pay attention closely if you see the trail symbol for a right or left turn.

Strange Words

Initially words like elevator, mailman and trashcan felt a little new... But sometimes we get stumped by the words in usage in the US... Words like "Cow pie"!!! We were wondering what kind of a pie it was! A quick look-up in Google revealed a completely different meaning! 

Back in India, it's called "cow dung" and that's not a thing to be eaten!!! Yuckkkkkkk!!!
