*To be real clear here – I only look inside places that are obviously unoccupied. If I have the slightest idea maybe someone’s still using the place, I’ll keep moving. That’s just common courtesy, right?

Cross. Road.

I mean, when the map indicates that you are approaching a town called Bushyhead, you pretty much owe it to yourself to have a look. From what I saw, it was mostly a church and this cross, presiding over some narrow roads and the railroad tracks. But I’d’ve never known if I hadn’t looked. (That may not be the most profound thing I ever wrote. But – sadly – it’s not really the dumbest thing either.)
