hummmmm?

I was driving my Yukon north on County Line Road yesterday headed to my favorite running place...the bike path at Geneva State Park...when I passed a very familiar sight.  One that always makes me take pause.  Things that make you go hummmmm (if you will).  At the corner of Cashen Road and County Line Road is the Madison Waste Water Treatment Plant.  I think there are three big round cement treatment containers, but the one on the corner always makes me wonder.  There, on the railing, high above the ground hangs a big round orange life preserver. 

Really? 

Scenario:  I think I'll go for a swim.  Oh look, a big cement swimming pool.  Oh, it's smelly and foul looking, but I really want to swim.  Oh, I'm drowning; I wish there was a big orange life preserver that someone could throw to me.  Oh good, the government thinks of everything.  Now I'm SAVED.
