Read the sign on the far right. Even if the driver had trouble conceptualizing the “vague” idea of 50 feet, there are helpful bollards nearby. Considering that the white gate between the two bollards is no more than ten feet, it’s pretty obvious that someone has a measuring problem (or, far more likely down here, someone just doesn’t give a sh*t).

Um, yeah. If this is all you can think about while your toes are in the sand, the sun is shining down, and the waves are gently lapping nearby, then you are in serious need of a change of outlook. Start focusing on the good in life, man!

The eventual outcome is the same for all of us. The only difference is a matter of timing. Good health to y’all!

Name calling at its finest…

Texas has a vast network of Historical Signs posted along every roadway. As you probably know, I typically whip off the road to read these. However, I’ll be honest, most of the ones here in Texas have been so filled with hyperlocal minutia that I’ve been weaned off my habit. I give major props to the highway workers responsible for this sign! And no, though I (safely) flipped a U-turn on the highway in order to snap a photo of this sign, I did not stop to read the actual marker.

Yeah, because defacing a public space with graffiti is totally fine. But heavens, no, not gum!
