Kinda like putting a "dead end" sign in the middle of a field. I love your poetic take on it. <br /><br />Here's to a super weekend!

I like that you ended with "backward glance" because I think if I encountered that sign it would make me feel like I should turn around, kind of like a "No outlet" sign.Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03865193802444007545noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379826084010321238.post-61436386337585377782015-09-17T10:01:07.486-05:002015-09-17T10:01:07.486-05:00Looks like the pavement ended BEFORE the sign.Looks like the pavement ended BEFORE the sign.Al Penwasserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14052950809151897315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379826084010321238.post-45303103768428653402015-09-17T09:11:43.718-05:002015-09-17T09:11:43.718-05:00the photo was taken in San Saba - southwest middl...the photo was taken in San Saba - southwest middle of TX.
