Puntastic Advertising
Advertising doesn't always have to be boring. It can be cleverly creative, eye-catching and punny!
Here is one example, spotted in Cullman, Alabama.
The sign says "Don't drive your car into the ground. Get it fixed here!!!"
Ha ha!
Here is another example, spotted in Percival, Iowa.
The text on the rear panel of the hearse says "Shop til you drop!"
Ha ha!

Alcoa Eaglecam
This was yesterday's view from Alcoa's live streaming eaglecam. There are two "babies" and one parent in the photo. It's been fascinating watching the parents protecting, feeding and nurturing them, and watching their rapid growth. Any day now, they will attempt flying.
There was a much better overhead view from the camera that can be seen in the photo, but a storm zapped it. The folks at Alcoa set up a second camera for the viewing audience to be able to continue watching the babies' maturing and nest activities.
The back of this eagle postcard from my collection states: "The American Bald Eagle, our national bird, is the only eagle unique to North America. At one time, the word "bald" meant "white", not hairless. American Bald Eagles are found throughout most of North America, from Alaska and Canada to northern Mexico.

Another VW Bug Spider!
Back in May, I posted about a really cool VW Bug Spider in Lexington, Oklahoma. At the time, I thought it was unique and one-of-a-kind. Well, come to found out, there's a whole bunch of VW spiders crawling around the country.
I found this one resting under a nice shade tree in Avoca, Iowa.
More to come, as I find them....at some point....eventually.....sooner or later.
