Out of State

Mexico city has really good tamales. (Excellent tacos too. Excellent a lot of food!)



Feeble attempt at a segue here...these two were taken north of the border
California border, that is. Newport, Oregon

I got my digital camera for Christmas in 2005. This is the first sign picture I took in 2006.



This is the second:

Tour d'Organics

I highly recommend the Tour d'Organics to anyone looking for a great bike ride through beautiful country with amazing organic food (it really is all about the food!) I'm planning to do it again next year. These pictures were taken by one of my century ride buddies (who is also tandem rider extraordinaire).

Where the idea began

The inspiration for this blog came on a hike in the Berkshires on a humid afternoon in early September. I'd been taking pictures of signs for a while, and always had an idea that I'd do something with them someday. Thanks for the idea, E.

So to start, here are the signs from that trip that got the ball rolling.
