Jim Lane, who inspired our NMJA program many years ago, has submitted this nominee from the Texas Hill Country where he now resides. The metal stake in the picture was used to support a sapling that was planted in a county park. However, neither the employee who planted the young tree nor any of his colleagues saw fit to remove the stake. Not their job? The end result is pictured below.

Bud, I can’t look at the picture, but so happy to see you back at your passion- safety and saneness!!
