There are just a handful of crocus flowers that are usually the first to pop up in my front yard every year, and usually only for a few days. Yesterday morning, in between the rain showers, I managed to get a shot of them covered with droplets.

"Everywhere a sign..."

 

Things certainly are changing in Worcester since the corporate buyout and take over by Genesee & Wyoming. A pleathora of new signs have been scattered around the property, and various pieces of power from other GW owned roads have been showing up for maintenance.

 

Here we find B&P GP40-2 #3000 fresh out of the paint booth in St. Albans, VT, in for repairs. A distant cousin, PW GP38-2 #2008, aquired new in 1980, idles on the fuel track. Fortunatley, the sand tower has yet to be "assimilated," making this a worthwhile scene, atleast for the moment. 5/2017 Copywrite Tom Schubert

ODC Our Daily Challenge: Signs of Autumn

West Scotland Street Lane, Edinburgh

Snow is melting and my orchids have decided it is time to bloom. So I took them out for a whiff of the warm and sunny Good Friday.

Where old state park signs go to die, or at the very least, spend their winter season.

McLaughlin’s Manor House Coffee was a well-known coffee made in Chicago by W.F. McLaughlin & Co., founded in 1852. The XXXX in McLaughlin’s slogan denoted high quality. The company became part of the Kraft Foods division of National Dairy Products in 1968.

 

Image was shot with Nikon D200 + 18-70 f/3.5-4.5.

Wildwoods Convention Center, located on the boardwalk at Rio Grande Ave. in Wildwood, N.J., is a very nice state-of-the-art facility capable of holding up to 10,000 people.

 

This is the sign that sits on top of the building.

(perhaps another contender for the next tourist book cover!)

This was painted for, as I recall, Steve Powers' "sign shop" booth at Art Basel Miami 2007. Steve ended up buying it. Unless he had other shops contributing to his booth, we may have been the only sign shop in the US with a piece at Art Basel. The design was based on a snapshot of (presumably) an early 20th century sign shop in (presumably) a Chinatown somewhere (China?), that I found in the Encounters with the Other (Adventures in Amateur Ethnography) gallery, at Square America.

There are red on red accents in the drop shadow, and the letters and sign are outlined in gold leaf, all of which is hard to see in this photo.

I wonder how many photos of this sign there are out there...

đống sign này mình tính làm hồi đầu HK2 rồi ;_; nhưng mà làm cái đầu nản quá bỏ luôn nên h mình sẽ hoàn thành những thứ mình đã bỏ hiehie~

---------------------

Có một số người, một số việc, có chút cảm tình, khi đã vĩnh viễn rời xa, sẽ không thể có được nữa."

 

Dear Henry, pictured here crawling through the thicket, has clearly spottet something interesting!

 

What could it be? Some old books? A French person? Or maybe even his fellow undercover agents Mr Shaun and Little Pip?

 

We’ll keep you posted :-)

 

"STEPS Cars next left"

I am not sure a Mini or a 2CV or other car could get up or down those steps! LOL

Welcome to the village of Banstead in Surrey – and here’s a fine sign which illustrates the village’s long history. But who’d have thought that this attractive traditional design could have created controversy among the locals? Read on…

 

Clockwise from the top left: A woolpack, representing Banstead’s historic association with wool and sheep; All Saints parish church, which dates from the 12th century; a wheatsheaf, commemorating Banstead’s farming roots; the 18th century Old Well; and finally, the extensive lavender fields, which attract visitors from miles around.

 

And it’s this depiction of the lavender fields that has caused the raised eyebrows, because purists say that the fields aren’t in Banstead at all; they’re just outside the boundary and actually lie within the neighbouring London Borough of Sutton. And, it has to be said, the purists are right.

 

But then there’s the question of Banstead’s status as a village. It’s not a village at all, but actually a small (and very pleasant) town with a population of around 16,000. The ‘village’ refers to the half-mile long high street and adjoining roads... the scenes of my long-ago childhood escapades.

the end is near for the Hosta leaves

 

- Hosta 'Green Acres' has gained a great deal of popularity because of its immense size. It can be very effective as a backgound plant or space-eating ground cover. The leaf blade is distinctive in being so large but having a relatively narrow shape and distinct waviness.

In my garden this hosta is about 2 meters wide.

 

- Hosta 'Green Acres' is vooral ook populair geworden door zijn reusachtige afmeting. Deze plant is zeer effectief in de achtergrond van de border en kan een flink stuk grond bedekken.

Het blad is ook zeer groot, maar toch relatief slank van vorm.

In mijn tuin meet deze hosta ongeveer 2 meter in doorsnee.

Neon sign for a liquor store on Smith Street in Brooklyn. I wonder what the story is with this sign. If you go back to the September 2014 Street View it is a square 1980s style sign.

This is why I patronie the Nicollet Diner . . . it is also open 24/7/365, genuine clientele and great owners. I met both of the guys when they first opened. The place offers good value, great food, and terrific staff.

 

There aren't many places in MPLS or St. Paul that are opened 24/7 and since I am from Chicago, I find places open all hours are the basic necessities of urban living.. . . indeed, maybe life itself.

 

They do have a full bar in a separate back area . . . food is served there as well along with entertainment and Happy Hour.

 

Step through a small door into a cozy small little cubby to the funky "Muffin Top Cafe" for coffee and "dolce".

 

I think the owners are geniuses, personally. It really is a community gathering place where all are welcome.

Sign on Wall

Almonte, ON

Someone had erected this blunt but eloquent plea to the youth of Glen Innes NSW to refrain from putting graffiti on the door or building of the closed but restored railway station. Imploring respect - what a good idea. Wonder if it will work in the long run. This sign is that seen on the adjacent photo of the door etc. on the railway platform.

 

By the way, it is a “railway station” not a “train station”!

A lot of the signs around our local back roads are pretty much unreadable.
