Day 104
A strange logo
July 8th, 2010
I'm walking across America.
That's the idea, at least. I'm walking westward from New York City for nine months or so. If everything goes according to plan, I'll be in Oregon when the clock runs out. If nothing goes according to plan, maybe I'll end up in Peru or Mongolia or Pennsylvania. You can read all about the details of my trip if you're so inclined.

Here's my progress so far:
I think it’s very cool, especially if that arrow is pointing west.

I don’t see what’s so strange about it. Looks like a fairly typical sign for state or national land management area or zone. And it depicts the flat lands of Montana there leading out onto the Rockies in the distance. I get it all. And the “back country” of it all is because it’s not on any main highway I would suppose. Nice shot.
I agree. For those who live in the West or travel the open country out here these signs are common.
I agree – it doesn’t seem strange to me and I’m from Alabama. Wonder what’s so strange that Matt sees?
Where’e Jeff from Jersey???? Bet the “little woman”has him doing chores. I can’t believe I just said that. As a woman I hate that phrase. Dorinda I don’t get the sign either. Is it “which way did he goes, which way did he goes?”
ummm…I don’t know what to say…other then I was out buying the bird some treats cause Matt was no where in sight…not that I can see to Montana…..but alas he has returned….. I choose my own chores. I’m a liberated Daddy. I burned my guinea tee along time ago…..now onto Matt….. I like the sign. I get it to…but the arrow…which way does it go george.

I think Jeff is one of those crafty engineers. He engineers his way around chores! As long as we have Matt Hobo Green the chores can wait-THE HOBO NATION is having to much fun. This is one of those journeys that you do not want to hear “ARE WE THERE YET”? – We want Matt to be safe and finish but we want the journey to continue. This means there has to be a book and a reunion of the HOBO NATION!
Don I’ve all ready told a friend of mine that next year we have to go to North and take the roads like Matt has. The trek into Mn. thru Red Wing I am familiar with. Use to go to Red Wing in the fall. The only place in Mn. I could buy jonthan apples. I use them to eat and make pies. It is really pretty down there .
So that is what we are calling ourselves. The Hobo Nation. Can’t wait to let my grandkids know that Grammy is part of the Hobo Nation!!!!
Well – this is something I’ll have to google – “guinea tee”.
Well – NOW I KNOW! :) http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=guinea%20tee
oh man….is that a eastern/jersey/ guido term…? Sorry….should have said undershirt. I am sorry.
It was like burning a bra…but I am guy so I said guinea tee….Sleeveless undershirt…is a guinea tee. Since I am half Italian….I can and always have said it. Sorry if it offends anyone. Nice Candice. I almost blushed.
that means you can only say GUIN T
LOL, We always called them wife beaters. Reminds me of “You might be a redneck if “.
It’s not a highway…it’s a byway. I bet the sun looks that big too. ;-)
These are the trails that Lewis and Clark, Davy Crockett and these type would take.-I will bet many of the HOBO NATION would also take these byways to see beauty not seen on the main roads.
I think when he says strange he means the topographic, almost TRON-like, lines. Watch out for the edge of the simulation (The Thirteenth Floor) Matt!
WELL I THINK YOU ARE GOING THE BACKWAY—ARNT YOU?
OMG you guys are funny. “Guinea tee”…I thought it meant he gave up golf. *LOL*
BTW I’m on the fence about this logo. Looks very 70’s doesn’t it?
