The wife had a "girls night out" even tonight, and left me to fend for myself for dinner. So I was on my way to pick something up when I came around a curve in the road and saw this:
There were cars lining both sides of the street, and a line of people getting yard signs. I continued on and picked up my food, and on the way home, I stopped by.
This guy had about a dozen cardboard boxes of the signs in his garage. His wife and two high-school aged children were sitting on the front porch and putting them together for him. In addition to giving the signs away, he was selling t-shirts and buttons. He said that all the money from the sales would go toward buying more signs to give away.
So I bought a button
Took my sign
and headed for home.
When I got home, I realized that his yard would make a perfect picture for you guys to see, so I grabbed the digital camera and headed back.
I asked him if it would be OK to take a picture of his yard to show some friends. He said, "Sure. Hell, post it on the internet if you want to. I want people to see this!" He seemed very pleased when I told him my plan
was to post it on the internet.
