Quartzsite, AZ - Huh?

Just read online that the Russian Parliament voted 350 to 3 to: decriminalize domestic violence. And, we want to be buddies with this nation?

Back to Alaska for a bit. We loved the highway signage we saw in Alaska. Not always what we’re used to. We know ‘Stop’ and ‘Yield’ but found some others pretty descriptive.

We quickly learned to depend upon signage like this at the side of the road. Obviously, this meant ‘ya better slow down or you’re gonna bounce off the clouds.’ Nice to know in a motorhome.

Here’s a double: first you know that the road will be bumpy but then it turns to gravel.

Better look both directions for those trucks. They’ll get you coming or going.

And, so will those bus kids.

Moose are pretty special in Alaska and we saw several of these signs. This was in early July 2016 so we assume that this meant that 235 had been killed since July 2015. We saw these signs in several towns with different numbers on them.

This is another moose sign but it was in jest.

Lots of logging around here. In Iowa, we have tractors on our signs.

And, then, there was the person with a real sense of humor.
