From the road

Part of the way down Wisconsin (if you’re coming from Minnesota via I94), there’s a spot where they were doing road work about six months ago. They finished up the first part, but apparently they want to do more on the same stretch at some unspecified future date. Because instead of removing the big orange sign that says “SINGLE LANE AHEAD,” they just put some kind of tape over the letters to block them out.

Except the strip of tape they used wasn’t quite long enough to cover the whole line. So the sign now reads “SIN…..AHEAD.”

I can’t figure out whether it’s a warning or a command.

And people wonder where writers get their ideas…

    It does sound like a sort of updated Pilgrim’s Progress.

    Come to think of it, maybe it’s an ad…
