    Hiking

    Quite a strange custom. A story I was once told: if you want to get rid of an illness, you symbolically give it to a dead tree with a coin.
    It doesn't matter to the tree (it's already dead)
    But if someone else pulls out a coin and pockets it, the tree will pass this disease back to the "puller."
    Nasty, right? 🤷

    I'm surprised no one has plundered the trees yet.
