Today John and I were doing errands. As he was driving along, I noticed the retread of a tire alongside the road. About two feet from that, on the shoulder of the road, was a goose laying an egg!
A little farther along we came upon a large wooden sign. One of those homemade signs that say something like "Six ears of corn for a dollar". Only you couldn't tell what it said because it had been nailed on upside down!
The next thing that I saw that I thought was kind of curious was a road sign that said "Bridge May Be Icy". Wow, interesting since it was 91 degrees outside. Everytime I see that sign I chuckle.
I also saw several signs that read "DUI - you can't afford it". To me that is a bizarre campaign. Is money really going to stop somebody from drinking too much? If something was going to stop them, I would think it would be not wanting to kill themself or somebody else, not worrying about saving a few bucks.
I also saw a sign that said "Falling Rocks". On the shoulder of the road were lots of rocks that had fallen. Gee, I thought, they are warning you that a rock might fall on you. Like, what are you supposed to do if you see it coming? Sure enough, I saw one really HUGE rock that had made it down into the middle of the road at an earlier time. We straddled it and drove on. I am glad it hadn't fallen when we had been driving by.
I also saw three Deer Crossing Signs. I was hoping to see a deer, but it is probably good that I didn't. If it had jumped out in front of the car it would have been a bad thing for us all...
oh my gosh these were really funny..i have seen these signs as well, but hearing you put it like this makes one think huh?

I always see a sign that says beware of aggresive drivers, now what's up with that? Like they own the road and I have to get out of their way! We also have deer signs, on this one road the deer cross at the sign all the time, I wonder if they can read? Have a good day.
ReplyDeleteI loved the title to this entry, as well as the goose laying an egg - you should've had my El Cheapo camera LOL Jan and Sierra
