S Is For Signs

It's time again For ABC Wednesday. If you aren't participating in ABC Wednesday, you are missing out on a lot of fun.

S is for Signs. Whenever I have my camera with me I like to take pictures of unusual signs. This one taken in San Pedro Belize has to be one of my all time favorites. No we didn't eat there.

Cannibals

It seems like the maintenance men at King's Casino in Louisiana would have noticed that some maintenance was needed. It's a sin.

It's A Sin

Just because there is a restaurant and a motel on the same premises doesn't mean that they should share the sign. We were hungry, but not that hungry.

A Little To Expensive

Lake Leatherwood, near Eureka Springs, Arkansas, is formed by one of the largest hand-cut native limestone dams in the country. The dam and several structures at the park were built in the early 1940s by the WPA. This sign on the lake appears to have been built in the 40's but I'm not quite sure why it was needed.

Good To Know

I had too many sign pictures to post, so I made a music video from my pictures. One of my favorite songs from the 70's is "Signs" by "The Five Man Electrical Band". It seemed like an appropriate song for this post. Take a look.

    This was FANTASTIC! Thoroughly enjoyed the music video! I also did signs & seagulls on a video, but mine pales in comparison to yours today. Come on over though and take a peek. :D

    Really cool signs! I LOVE them! I am glad the swimmers are going to wear bathing suits! I think that is a GOOD sign : ).
