I had this idea to post a picture of a scene I see daily.
There is a strip mall I pass daily that advertises three signs on the grass next to it. Each sign bears a single word...."Guns," "Ammo," "Corn." The first time I saw the signs, I knew I had to get a picture for my blog.
But I didn't.
I continued to pass the signs every day for a month before actually putting my digital camera in the glove box. And every day after that, I passed them without taking a picture. It was either raining or the traffic wasn't good or I was in a hurry or I just wanted to get home. "There would always be a chance tomorrow," I told myself.
So the perfect opportunity came about yesterday.
It was Sunday and I had the time. And I had my camera handy. Perfect.
As I approached the strip mall, I reached into my purse to grab the camera. I slowed down in order to pull into the parking lot, only I didn't see the signs.
They weren't there.
How could they not be there? They have been there for months... years maybe. Sometimes moved into different positions but there. I couldn't get my picture.
I blew it.
Today on my way home the signs were back.
I don't know if I'll ever get a picture of those signs now.
