The Uber-Trip Continues!

Well, we finally made it to New Mexico, and all in one piece. Along the way, we saw a multitude of entertaining roadsigns.

My favorites:

In Nowheresville, TN, a political yard sign asking folks to vote for Mr. Suchandsuch for the City Council because he's a "real nice guy." (or some words to that effect)

In Oklahoma City, a billboard for a local farmer's market... with a woman holding two rather large watermelons in front of her person, and a caption that read, "Hey! Nice Melons!"
Wow.

And of course, our hometown billboard: "Welcome to Portales! A town of 12,000 Friendly People... and 3 or 4 Old Grouches."
It's good to be home.

We've also seen some good bumper stickers. The one that takes the cake:

in large letters: "RUN, HILARY, RUN!"
in small letters: "Democrats, stick on back bumper. Republicans, stick on the front."

Who says politics has to be boring?
