And the sign says...

Signs, signs, everywhere the signs.  We bought an address sign years ago for our lot here in the Tropical Tip.  Before we ever built a house on the lot.  The sign has been through a lot... survived Hurricane Dolly intact.  It is made out of concrete; weighs a ton.  It was white.

While we were gone, the cable company dug around in our yard.  I'm not saying they busted the sign, but someone did a number on it - busted it into pieces.  Liquid Nails put it back together, but the glue lines showed, and one of the numbers fell off.  Since this thing is almost an heirloom, I decided to spruce it up a bit... more Liquid Nails to do a "bondo" job on missing pieces, then a couple fresh coats of textured paint.  It looks pretty passable now...


I would consider this a "10 foot sign"... from about 10 feet away, it is still readable and looks pretty decent.  ;-)
