This small container is perched in an amur honeysuckle bush off the City View Road trail in Lancaster County Central Park. The park is open only during daylight hours. Please respect that.
I think of trombones as the large brass instrument with the slide.
But I noticed that a package of paper clips was labelled TROMBONES. That is the word for paper clip in French. The bends in the now-standard paper clip do seem similar to trombone bends in brass.
There are quite a few colorful paper clips in this container. Feel free to take one. I find that paper clips are handy geocaching tools for pulling out tightly wound logs. I've also used them as improvised hooks to repair things. The wire bends easily but is still sturdy.
