What does it say?

Also present for the ceremony were, from left, Hongyun He, Shibin Gao, Yanjun Qui, Yanlin Zhao, Mark Weiser of OSU, and Kaiyin Yan.

Cardinal Lanes bowling center sign, Paducah, Ky. Unusual geometric script — and the sign is just metal, not the neon you'd expect.

From the western half of San Francisco, the most direct bike commute route east to the Caltrain station is 14th Street, then a parking lot, then a short length of Division Street at Bryant. Apparently the police have recently ticketed some bicyclists for making the forbidden left turn here.

 

I've biked here for years, and I had no idea that turn was prohibited, because there has always been some sort of panel truck parked there, obscuring it. The trucks are owned by people running an open-air "chop shop" of suspiciously-obtained bicycles. (I'm guessing that the ruined wheel above the sign is one of their discards.)

 

We've complained about this for years, and finally the chop shop was cleared out and moved along ... to one block down the street.

 

Note: If you click on the (map) link on the right, it'll tell you this is "Treat Avenue." It's all quite confusing: When you're riding east, 14th Street ends but an easement continues through a parking lot, which meets up briefly with the end of Treat, and continues as Division for half a block. At Bryant, there's another easement through another parking lot, but that's fenced off. Half a block north of this intersection, Division Street continues right where 13th Street ends!

They're chock-full o' signs, at Hudson's Mill Farm & Garden Supplies.

Old Alabama Power Sign. Taken with a Nikon D300.

I applied to work here. Got an interview. That's about it.

I certainly was enough to take a picture.

Sometimes mother nature gives us signs in the evening skys of what tomorrow might hold for us.

Possibly from more innocent times.

Walter Plowman started selling fish around Pontypridd in 1870, hawking fish bought in Cardiff around the houses by horse and cart. Later he branched out into the Rhondda Valley as well. The firm "Plowman's Lunch" is still run by the Plowman family.

 

Clearly this sign is for those who have difficulty in reading the word "ghoti", so a pictogram has been used.

Vrangfoss is a place in Telemark and one of many canals.

Road signs along the Sea-to-Sky Highway all have Coast Salish (Sḵwx̱wú7mesh snichim) place names. Cool!

... after a hard winter

It's amazing what our eyes and brains process everyday. Just in this glimpse I see a complaint about whining, notification of a baby on board, a plea for revolution, a Chevy license plate promotion, a Chinese restaurant promotion, and a bank with "let us take" in the scroll.

 

It makes me wonder how much of the suggestion from all we see actually sticks and works into our thoughts and decisions.

I spotted this ghost sign while i was passing through SE15 the other day .... take a look at the street view link below there is a good set of pictures of the area on the building opposite ...

Governor Chris Gregoire signed two bills authorizing the funding for the construction of the pontoons for the SR 520 floating bridge at a ceremony at Grays Harbor College on May 13, 2009.

 

Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2211 authorizes tolling on SR 520 beginning next year. The combination of toll revenue, previously authorized state gas taxes, and federal funds closes the funding gap and allows the new floating bridge to move forward.

In the village. I misread this to start with - I thought the bunnys were over 18 only which is quite old for any rabbit let alone a baby one. No wonder the children quickly lose interest. 18 year old rabbits probably need a lot of naps.

 

Ooo! I just realised that whoever wrote this did it from the inside and therefore had to write backwards/mirrored. No wonder by the end of the notice they seem a bit crabby. Hard work.

They took this with them, but I managed to get a photo of it first.

Went for a short walk today, the sun was shining and the temp a little bit warmer and then to top it off I saw these to me a clear sign of spring :)
