Amazingly enough...I spotted this before Wendell did. :clap:

Anyone care to guess where I found it at? 🙂

Well, I'd guess Lane County, but that would be too obvious. How about Marion County?

😉

No, your right. Lane County. I found it by a covered bridge that was closed for repairs. Strange...

Bridge... (Pic)

Here's the bridge it was close by. The Dorena covered bridge. We drove 9 miles to find out it was CLOSED for restoration! But that's ok...it was a pretty drive regardless. 🙂


Dorena Lake.

I'm sure that half of all the Beer Leggers are biting their tongues to keep from posting all the embarrassing or unsavory places that they could think up of where you might have been when you saw that sign. Might have been some real interesting guesses if one of the guys had posted such a question. But for now, I would guess near a survey marker... PS. Real pretty pictures

Angel... See, that's how you are testing the real meddle of some here... you have posted a pic of a "Survey Marker Sign"... not an actual Survey Marker. 😉

Grammar police warning

"Anyone care to guess where I found it at?"

There is no need for the last word in your sentence.

Grammar police warning

When his grammar was being corrected similarly, Churchill reportedly said

"This is the kind of tedious nonsense up with which I will not put!" 😉

I thought the grammar police were going to arrest the sign ... isn't "Near by" one word?

Perry

Great picture. Certainly you didn't try to canoe over that weir did you? Looks like a good place to stop and have lunch.

Deral & Andy

That's the Ammonoosuc River that runs from Mount Washington Southwesterly and into the Connecticut River. The covered Bridge is in Bath NH which is about 10 minutes away from my house. It's a nice 4 hour paddle from Lisbon NH to the Connecticut River with one portage around the Bath Dam shown in the pic. Lots of nice Class 1 and 2 rapids.

Here's the lunch spot with a private beach...

You guys!!!

> I thought the grammar police were going to arrest the sign ... isn't "Near by" one word?

You guys enjoy razzing me, huh... 😛

See, even the sign maker made a mistake!! I just took the pic!! 😛

I would have liked to find where the actual Survey marker was that the sign was talking about but I also was not ready to go for a swim in the raging river. (The sign was REALLY close to where the hill goes straight down into the river.)

This is what was right below the area where the sign was posted.

HC, Now you spent eleven words telling her she had one redundant word.....

Also, if you were replying to Carl, why didn't you ask about the use of the word "meddle"? I am thinking he meant "mettle"......

On second thought, maybe "meddle" was actually more appropos 😉
