Signs and Street Names



Along with license plate messages, I also get a kick out of unusual - and sometimes bizarre - street names and signs.  The above sign was in a window in Cottonwood, Arizona.  For some reason, that area of the country is big into alien activity, so I thought the sign had a double meaning.  Not only would we be welcome, but aliens are welcome as well.

Just for the fun of it, here are a few street signs I found particularly interesting:

Cowboy Street in Blanding Arizona

 Silver Saddle Avenue   /   Buckboard Trail   /   Last Chance Road
     – all in Flagstaff, Arizona

Surprise Street in Searchlight, California

Mud Springs Road and Bloody Basin Road in Prescott, Arizona

Ax Handle Canyon in Nevada   /   Sleepy Hollow Road, Taylorsville, NC

Frogbend Road, Yadkinville, NC

Two Notch Road, Columbia, SC

Crooked Mile Road, in Granite Falls, Washington

Coal Creek Parkway, Bellevue, Washington

    I for one, would NOT want to live on a street called "Bloody Basin!"


Then, there are the signs that tempt our tastebuds and make us smile (:


A sign in front of a bakery in Apex, North Carolina


A sign in the window of a Macaron shop at the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas

This is just a fun post, done for chuckles and and smiles.  Hope you had a bit of both.  Now, go out and enjoy a cupcake or macaron!
