Cool Crocagater

This crocagater sign always cracks me up. It's not in Florida, it's on Hall's Chapel Road.


And this is one stylin' crocagater. I mean, it's got eyelashes.


Wait, crocagaters got eyelashes???

Best sign in Yancey County?

Hard to say, but I'm pretty fond of this friendly message overlooking Hwy 19, just west of Burnsville.

Best sign in Mitchell County?

Snow Creek Road. This is not the first time I've photographed this sign, but it has evolved quite a bit since I last took a good look at it. If you know of a better sign in Mitchell County, I want to see it, because this is a thing of priceless beauty.
