Day 120
A rough-hewn sign post
July 24th, 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:
Hey use what you’ve got. Reuse, recycle?
Yea who needs metal when you got big huge tree limbs. Cave Man signage company I suppose.
hehehe
..entering from where?
I don’t live in a place where you can see 3-5 miles down the road like they do there.
But you would THINK you could at see the trucks that far away for the fair warning?
Save money on the signs?
More Clamato, little brother?
Interesting perspective in this photo. The problem that arises on a road like this is that a driver sees the open road and puts the petal to the metal. This becomes problematic when slower moving trucks are entering onto the road, especially in a dip in the road.
Hey – I’m loving the background – lusting after that green hill way, way far away!
If you Flickr Zoom you can see a crossroad in the distance – perhaps where the “trucks entering” lurk.
I see that road…nice eye…
By the way Matt – the scenery in this photo (past the sign) is beautiful – well worth your walking so far to see it and capture it for your vicarious followers!
Agree, Candice. My eyes are drawn to the beautiful landscape in behind the sign.
Hewn . . . that’s a great word. Not used often enough anymore
