A splendidly detailed signpost on the A81 near Balfron on 16/5/75. Unfortunately one of the arms is missing.
Walking trails criss-cross the Cantabrian Mountains in northern Spain. Some of these ancient routes are the pathways of medieval saints; most connect old villages; and one we found even lead us through a landscape of magical Cantabrian characters.
Brick streets, stone buildings, and mountains lost in mist: Cicera is a traditional Cantabrian village. But, as a nod to modern times, that signboard has a QR Code!

Peter Forsgard's 52 Challenge - Week 5 Weather
Out yesterday with Pauls Pix 53 and ianbartlett for a 12 mile circular walk from Hastings to Fairlight.
Soon after snapping this, Ian and my phones decided we were in France! He even got a text welcoming him to France and saying he was on the same roaming rate as in the UK. Mine moved the time forward an hour.
And yes it rained, but we were already wet, so it didn't matter :))

Dieser Wegweiser im Talschluss namens Gollingwinkel zeigte auf, in welch zentraler Lage der Schladminger Tauern wir uns an dieser Stelle befanden.
This signpost at the head of the valley called Gollingwinkel showed us the central location of the Schladminger Tauern at this point.
Directional signpost outside a store in Todd, NC, near the former Todd General Store, famous for attracting bluegrass fans and players (including Doc Watson) for drop-in jams on Friday nights.
A signpost in Saas-Almagell (1673m) showing the various hiking trails starting in the village. Some of these are not for the fainthearted!

Mount Isa in Central west Queensland is very remote - this sign on the City Lookout says it all.
Mining is Mount Isa's main source of income. Ores containing copper and lead are smelted on site, with copper anodes and zinc concentrate being transported 900 km to the city and port of Townsville on the east coast. The lead ingots are transported to a refinery in Britain where the silver is extracted. The mine is the most significant landmark in the area, with the stack from the lead smelter (built 1978), standing 270 m tall, visible from all parts of the city and up to 40 km away.
The mines are owned by Anglo–Swiss multinational commodity trading and mining company Glencore, headquartered in Switzerland, with its registered office in Jersey. The current company was created through a merger of Glencore with Xstrata on 2 May 2013.
Onward to Dobbie's Grave or to Buckholm?
Not the resting place of the Harry Potter house-elf, Dobby who died from a knife-wound inflicted by Bellatrix Lestrange at Malfoy Manor.
Not Dobbie's Garden Centre either.
A man called Dobie who in 1790 attempted for a bet to march all the way from Lauder to Galashiels and who collapsed and died on the way.
