Highway sign fonts are changing

Yeah, you read that right. It's nothing I have ever thought about before, honestly. Highway signs have a font? And there are people who make decisions about what that is? It's true and apparently all of our nation's signs are in the process of being changed from Highway Gothic (no joke; top picture) to Clearview (bottom picture). I love life. I swear... what a cool thing to think about. Am I nuts? Yes, yes I am. :) You know, I'm sad when things like this go away, though. I bet those old signs gain some sort of status as collector's items and wind up on ebay for tons of cash too. Sigh. Also, I know they say that the Clearview font is easier to see, but, doesn't that photo look Photoshopped to you? It does me. Hmph!

Follow along on our honeymoon!

Hello from Ireland! I won't be blogging too much as I'm spending all my time writing thoughtful captions over on Flickr. Please follow along there, if you'd like, by clicking the picture above! :D

Bye-bye, girls

Mo & Saffy made their way to Camp Jones last night for a two-week stay complete with teenagers and a fluffy white dog that weighs... the same as they do (or slightly less).

We leave for our honeymoon tomorrow (YAY!) and the girl's former owners agreed to keep an eye on them while we're away. Awesome, huh?

It's VERY weird around here without them. I keep checking to make sure I don't roll my chair over one of them and as I move around the condo, I keep expected them to appear. Sigh. Ah well, they'll be back soon enough and are in very capable hands.
