Road Side Crosses

It's a sad note when you see a roadside cross.

I don't understand the ones that appear on a straight piece of road, as I question "why do accidents happen on them" ?

I fully get why people put crosses up and the flowers etc.

I remember when there was an accident, many years ago, on Broadloads Road towards Taupo. Teenagers were killed and the crosses were a very public memorial for their friends. This reminder is no longer there, and I often wonder where the crossess went.

This memorial is not far from home and is flanked in the background by a large number of trees.

It would appear that this weeks blip focus is close to home. No rhyme nor reason, just is.
