Bill boards are few and far between here. Up around Johnstown there are a number of them, but down here not so much.....We wanted to get a photo of one of those Amish signs offering everything from eggs to rocking chairs to jam for sale, but none of them were placed where we could safely pull off the road. Meanwhile this ugly thing has been perched on the side of one offshoot of Little Nose Mountain as long as I can remember. It has been refurbished but it has been there since we were kids riding around with Grandma and Grandpa Lachmayer back in the day...And that is how long I have disliked it too.
For more Sunday Stills......
Be glad you are billboard free, my mom had a heck of a time thios week too because of the lack of them..:-)

ReplyDeleteLoverly... Note the sarcasm in my tone of type... :) great shot, horrible place for a billboard.
ReplyDeleteRight smack in the middle of those trees.
ReplyDeleteAlaska doesn't allow billboards, so there are none at all. Strangely enough, we don't miss them a bit.
ReplyDeletewv: reentin = planting more ents?
That is kinda just hanging right there in the way isn't it.
ReplyDeleteI'd would like to see the Amish billboard. I find most billboards just annoying eyesores for the most part...at least this one tells you where to go;)
ReplyDeleteaaaaccckk! Billboards. Hate 'em. Complete distractions for the driver and defiler of the view.
ReplyDeleteIf making a phone call or texting are outlawed, shouldn't billboards be taboo?
Rev. Paul...I knew something was missing when we were driving up there!
Ed, I am...I knew this would be a bit of a challenge unless I happened to do some traveling, but I certainly don't feel deprive. We saw hundreds of them yesterday, too late for this week's challenge
ReplyDeleteLisa, yeah, it is so out of place up there on the mountain side
Sara, I have to say I feel sorry for whomever has to maintain it. He certainly can't go UP the mountain, so I guess he must have to go down over the edge. Arrgghh!!
RG, yeah, it is not a pretty thing
Rev. Paul, yet another way in which your state is ahead of the rest of the pack!
Janice, it pretty much detracts from what otherwise is a lovely view coming up the valley between the mountains.
Linda, we will hunt up one of theirs first chance we get. They are all over the place these days
Joated, they are pretty awful. We came down into PA yesterday to go to Cabela's and saw hundreds but too late for the challenge. I couldn't believe how many were for massage parlors. lol
Wow, it's right in the middle of the trees! Good view of the trees though!!!! I live in a tourist town ... Home of Mark Twain ... so I'm used to billboards. They're everywhere!
ReplyDeleteAva, oh, wow, I can just imagine. There are quite a few of them near the cities around here, but right where we live not so many
ReplyDeleteWOW! at the top of trees, no less!
