I live in one of the most beautiful small towns in America. However, just about every visitor to our town has to drive by this sign just as they enter. The owner of the sign puts up a new angry message every few weeks. Here is the latest.
The shame of it is that we are a great town with great people. Everyone I know in town--conservatives, liberals and the non-political--all are a bit embarrassed by this sign. We have amazing natural beauty, a great school, wonderful arts festivals, and a summer small town fair that most communities wish they had.
Drive through town and you see this idyllic creek. I get to drive over this bridge a couple of times every day.
Look to the north and get a close up of Mt. Adams. As the crow flies, the summit is about 10 miles from town.
We have stunning mountain lakes right outside of town...
with great fishing opportunities...
Plenty of snow for the winter enthusiasts...
At any rate, I have decided that every time this guy puts up a hate-filled message I will post it and juxtapose it with some photos that should give him reasons to count his blessings rather than just complain. He lives in this town, after all, and we all have nothing to complain about!
