Signs of the times...

Let's see..I DO have a Smartphone that can take pictures and make videos.

And place calls.

And it "shoots" photographs.

Better NOT try to go in this place. I've been warned.


But, here I am being enticed. Beckoned.

A hearty pint of soup would be good.

As I recall, this was outside an Irish Pub in New York City.

You would expect to see something like this outside EVERY such establishment.

I'll keep my eyes peeled.

I sent this to a buddy of mine whose name is Lobb.

He wasn't nearly as excited as I thought he would be.

I told him I saw this in downtown Atlanta.

He didn't believe me. I said "but I rode its elevator!"

This one gives pause.

Auto insurance companies would frown on this type of behavior.

Safe driving would be the best way to not be stopped by the police.

When you drive so fast that ANY of the tires leaves the road, you're being reckless.

Yet I saw warnings like this posted all over Folly Beach.






















At the risk of offending those who wear green in Mid-March, I did see this clever ad on a wall in Montreal.

It was a polite message of course.

And I never would have thought to look in that direction.

And it was a fun place.

I asked for the Soup Of The Day.


(Click on the photos. Aw, go ahead.) It's fun to take signs out of context. Keep your eyes open and alert for messages to have fun with later. I sure do. Thanks for signing in.

The Bottle At The End Of The Rainbow...

I never wondered where rainbows originated.

I knew that some beers were gold-colored but I simply did not make the connection.

I was out at the Isle of Palms yesterday, hoping for a dazzling, stunning sunset, but saw clouds roll in and figured the sky would be rather boring this day.

But, as someone there remarked "Sunsets happen every day but a rainbow is always a surprise."

There was a break in the clouds on my right and the sun peeked through enough in the slight drizzle to reward anyone standing out on the deck looking toward the ocean.

Someone with a camera in their hand.

And someone willing to move around to change their point-of-view.



A house nearby joined the other end of the rainbow.

And basked in the brief golden glow of the setting sun.

The wind was blowing hard so no people were strolling along the beach.

There would have been a lot of sand flying around and biting the skin.

Nitty gritty.

But, they would have benefited from my beer bottle rainbow.

Later in the evening, I switched to a Guinness. That's a dark beer.

See what I mean?


(Click on the images to see larger pictures. I have no proof that beer creates strange images.) Thanks for stopping by. Come again. Thanks.
