However, these are irrelevant to me: I’m far too short to hit my head on overhanging branches. Also, I don’t drive a truck. It’s nice that this place is for dogs who want to swim. I don’t have a dog. As a German in France, … Continue reading Some Traffic Signs Are More Relevant Than Others
For the life of me I don’t know what this combination of signs is supposed to tell me (and others): Don’t let your dog sh*t here. Think of the children. Private. Think of the children in the privacy of your own … lawn? Surely not. … Continue reading Very Confusing Signs

I don’t think these cut outs have a special name. They can be found near schools to warn cars to go slow. I was reminded of the ones in my archives when I saw the kid buried almost completely in snow last week.
