    I applaud your effort, Rick. Any mosaic would do so, thumbs up! Be careful choosing new tags. It's all fun and games till bullets fly by!

    Vintage signage it is then.

      Cool sign. If anyone here wiles away time on Instagram check out everything_signage. Crazy cool images of old signs.

        Here's a group of signs next to the 66 Diner on Centtral Ave aka Route 66. Surely there's some "Vintage" ones in here, like the old Phillips 66 one smack in the center! HaHa

          Here's the new tag, "WORLD'S BEST" something or other. I wonder if this body shop got any business from the driver that took out the barrier and street sign here.

          Edit: Worlds Best may be too specific so anything claiming to be the Best will do. IE, best little warehouse in Texas or voted best breakfast burrito...

            I forgot I had this recent pic. A literal interpretation of your tag, LOL

              I've had to do that before. When we had a snow tag and no one had snow. The second snow tag, I had to use a building at Blizzard Be]ach water park out at Disney. Creativity keeps the game moving.

                Some of that "creativity" may be in order for this one. I edited the tag a bit.

                  We've had wet weather or I just didn't get to go out on the bike, but I'll see what I can get this weekend.

                    Couldn't find "Worlds Best", but I took the optional "Best" route to get the game rolling again. Here are a couple.



                    I'm waiting for the other pics to rematerialize from above.

                      I'll post the next tag pic here as soon as I get it on my lap top. In case anyone want's get going on it, it's a road sign so obvious it isn't necessary. But since were are a country full of idiots and frivolous lawsuits, we have road signs for everything polluting the landscape. If you can't find a ridiculously obvious sign, an obnoxious cluster of road signs will do.

                      Update: One of my pics landed.

                        Here's a sign telling you there's a sign coming up. It didn't show up as good in the pic but the upcoming stop sign is super obvious when you're approaching it.

                          Nice composition. The moon in the background is a nice touch.

                              Thanks guys. This is where highway 47 (or 2nd st) turns into highway 556 (or Tramway blvd) just North of town. So not necessarily a boundary or border, but where a road starts.
