sign, sign, everywhere a sign
Before I let up on all the photos and return to text, I wanted to post some of my favorite signs from the road.

"So it is with minds. Unless you keep them busy with some definite subject that will bridle and control them, they throw themselves in disorder hither and yon in the vague field of imagination... And there is no mad or idle fancy that they do not bring forth in the agitation." - Montaigne

i really enjoyed your roadtrip!
now, where's a picture of your L.A. digs??
~anonymous G
My comment here is the same as everywhere: what an awesome document you've left us. You are not the queen- you are the king.
Your photos are great. Reminds me of my own x-country travels where I was reduced to reading outloud the names of funny signs b/c travel fatigue prohobited more. Even so, there's something to it.
Thanks.
You've been busy, Missy. Funny that you went with the half-head and I love the Thang addition. Gotta run get ready for FQF. I'm with Anonymous G, if you can use the h-head then you can post the digs. :-)
