Welcome to another year of the AtoZ Challenge.  This year I am doing signs that I have seen across the country.  This post will feature signs associated with the Letter L. ENJOY THE RIDE! We can't avoid signs.  They are everywhere.  Advertisements, informational signs, directional signs, business signs and, sometimes, even humorous and fun signs.  Each of my posts in this years' challenge will feature a hodgepodge of signs I have come across in my travels.  In most cases, I'll also note where they were taken.  Some were actually inside of shops or otherwise, so not all will have locations.  I hope you enjoy this fun trip each day of April. Honestly, I could probably do a post with dozens of photos of Lewis and Clark Historic Sites from around…

[caption id="attachment_30318" align="alignleft" width="300"] Mapleton Taxidermy & Cheese Store - Mapleton, Ontario[/caption] As I travel across the US and Canada, I obviously run into a variety of signs.  Some are just informational, but others are very unique. My theme for the 2021 AtoZ Challenge is going to be signs.  I'll present fun pictures and commentary on the many signs I run across.  Some posts may have four or five and others just one.  But, rest assured, you will see some fun signs along the way. [caption id="attachment_30215" align="alignnone" width="700"] Slap Ya Mommas - Biloxi, MS[/caption] I hope you will enjoy the ride as I introduce a plethora of fun signs from the U.S. and Canada (and maybe even some from overseas travels if I get the inkling!)
