Don't Ignore the Signs


When I saw these faceless signs (all within the past week), I thought, “Wow, I better use sunscreen this summer.”  Never underestimate the havoc nature can wreak.

If a yield sign is supposed to assign right of way, this one is pretty ineffective.  How many people have ignored this vague order and who would blame them? As this sign grows fainter and fainter, so does the urgency of its message.


Although these signs are faded and have lost their voice, they actually speak volumes. Wear your sunscreen.
