But on rare occasions, you might actually get to see one of these signs in real life!
And so, for your viewing pleasure, I'd like to add a sign to the collection:
That's right.
This is a real sign. It sits all new and shiny, about 5miles from my parent's house, on the edge of a paved road.
Now, I donno, maybe I just wasn't aware of the Tree Ent problem in the area...Maybe the small trees are more feisty? A little more spry and unpredictable in their movement perhaps? I'd personally be a little more worried about a big one jumping out in front of me!
The thing is, the sign appears within a clump of rather tall, seemingly securely rooted, cedar trees. Not a 'small tree' in sight.
I have a feeling that the dumb-ness of the sign is directly co-related to the alcohol consumption in the area.
Mhmm... Welcome to Grey County!
ReplyDeleteBest sign I ever saw was a long time ago on a mountain road in Alberta. It said "Rough Break In Road Ahead".
We rounded the corner and my dad was like "holy @^$#@" and abruptly stopped. More than half of the road was gone. I was probably 6 at the time but I still remember it quite clearly. There was just 1 pylon and nothing else around a fairly tight corner.
Small trees though? Yes... only in Grey County.
I always giggle at the road signs in Alberta that say, "Important intersection ahead".
ReplyDeleteBecause then I think, "So, are other intersections unimportant? How does one decide if an intersection is important? Do the other intersections feel inadequate?"
