Think SoWal has a sign pollution problem? A parking problem? Both? Perhaps there should be parking spaces installed on the shoulder instead of signs.

The downside to the signs is they drive people to park on 30A. Funny thing...I walk that almost every day and never realized there were so many because I don't see them all at once. Thanks, Kurt, for ruining my walk! 😛😀

Sign, sign
Everywhere a sign
Blockin' out the scenery
Breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that
Can't you read the sign?

Really sad that Scenic 30A is becoming less and less scenic.
