Long berfore gasoline prices soared to near $4 a gallon, Sunday drives used to be a pleasant undertaking for a summer afternoon.

Along with the scenery, watching for unusual signs was a fun pastime. You would find them on billboards, on church bulletin boards, or, at one time, the famous Burma Shave signs that adorned rural America's roads.Fortunately, signs haven't gone away, although Sunday afternoon rides have just about been priced out of the business. The following are some offerings sent by a local reader.
