The word Sue has put in our ear this week is Sign. I have been known to photograph a sign or two when I am out – looking for those that seem to reflect the personality of where I’m at. Here are some from the Corkscrew Conservatory and the Everglades National Preserve in southeast Florida.
Snakes and alligators are common.
What kind of stupid goes off-trail in the everglades?
I am intrigued by how the signs I live with at my northern home are so banal, so common. When I travel to somewhere new, the signs show me new dangers, new ways of living within the culture of the area.
To see more signs that may seem unusual to you, visit Sue at:

A New Day: Living Life Almost Gracefully 
Thanks for including the link Pat! Love your signs. When I was in the Nederland’s they actually built a bridge ( and a sign in Dutch) so the animals could cross over the read. I wish I had taken a photo!

We have seen so many wonderful photos but being on highways doesn’t allow for stopping for such stuff.

Hmm…I would imagine that there is a good reason for those signs…people go off the trail…wonder what they’d do if the sign read “beware of gators!”. 🙂

Pat, I imagine one must be either knowledgeable or short sighted to get off the trail in the Everglades, or the Amazon for that matter…..

That is what I’m thinking. 😉
