I know where that is too.
I guess I was frequenting the wrong spots. Of course I was not really looking either. 
Must have been the beverage in my eye, I mean my hand. :roll:
My daughter loves that store.

Oh, Jesus. They *are* horrid.
Going south on 395 at 30-A, it says that Seagrove is straight ahead. Is that why the house at that intersection is under repair?
Straight ahead (after crashing into that house) is the Gulf!

They are just plain uggggggly!!!
Today I witnessed a man in a TDC truck stopping and measuring the height of the big blue uglies. We must make sure we have properly installed those tacky signs!:shock:
:roll: Could be to lower them or measuring for landscaping. Possibly some sort of replacement that could use the same base?
I have had a commissioner tell me that in the next few weeks 119 additional blue signs will be installed along 30-A. If this is true you are not going to be able to find anything for all the blue signs.
It is true. Those additional signs are costing an additional $160,000. As I suggested, it will be easier to stop those signs than replacing the ones which are already installed. Call and email the County Commissioners today!!!
I am beginning to have my doubts. So far the commissioners all agree that the sign at the foot of the bridge is wrong, yet it seems no one can figure out who needs to tell Public Works to take a couple of wrenches and go take the thing down. I really hate indecision in a public official. Right or wrong, I have the utmost for respect for someone that will at least stand up and make a decision on something.
So within the month we will be having blue signs every 500 feet on 30-a. I do not live down there, but I can not stand the number of governmental signs I see on the road now. And again the BCC knows it is going to be bad, but no one appears to be stepping up to stop the madness.
Me too. That is perhaps the biggest problem with this county govt. The interesting thing is that it doesn't seem to change much no matter who is sitting in the commissioner's seats. Buck passing is so firmly established that it has become standard operating procedure and is, imho, the reason why we are so far behind the times when it comes to things like maintaining the bike path, cleaning up the right-of-way, broadcasting BCC meetings, recycling, paving roads and a host of other projects.

One of the problems seems to be upon entering office, immediately the focus shifts to getting reelected. Personally, I would hate to think that my sole goal was to obtain the title of commissioner and plan on staying at that level the rest of my days. If you go in and really do make a difference there are so many places that leadership are needed. Go fix the problems and move on and up so you can tackle bigger problems and make a difference in the lives of more people. But some think that they have arrived.
Maybe it is some sort of a pill they get the night they win. I use to be amazed at how these ordinary people get elected and overnight they become experts in engineering, human resources, and money management. At least now they have hired some really talented individuals and they do seem to take those individual expert opinions into account.
I have started asking them to list their accomplishments when I speak to them about their future plans for office. I am now trying to find out how they want their period of leadership to be remembered. Makes for some really interesting conversation.
