Explorer Tom Right, Craigshinnie! It’s just a tiny stone wheel, but it’s got that look of a man who missed his bus ages ago. The wind keeps picking on it, trying to spin it up for no reason, which is annoying when you’re trying to nap. I’d love to see if it still spins or if it’s finally given up the ghost.

If you don’t have proper boots, he won’t let you near the water, no matter how much you beg or bribe him.

Explorer Tom Craigend thinks the road leading to it is lazy for taking so long to arrive at its doorstep. It’s got a farmstead and fields that are just waiting for someone to complain about the gravel choice. Bring curiosity, leave with a better story than mine.
