New big blue signs in SoWal

[GoodWitch58]

And the roads that connect 98 to 30A. I can understand the dislike of the design of the signs, but I really do not understand why anyone thinks that everyone that comes to the area knows where things are located. I would not want to drive from one end of 30-A to the other, trying to find Blue Mountain Beach area.

But you know I will leave you to the sign bashing and for that matter tourist bashing. It is obvious to me, some just like to complain about anything that changes.

Maybe someone can send Minnie a map

A map does no good without the signs.

Hideous, truly hideous. If anyone is going to Disney World soon, check out if Tomorrowland is missing a few signs. I swear that's where they came from. Seriously - "Blue Mountain".... "Space Mountain"...think about it!

I'm thinking the real tall signs are for when the TDC completes its next brilliant project - the 30-A monorail - because you need to be on an elevated track to read the stupid things.

What were they thinking??????

to the sign hating thread... hope you voted. please note, there are other more positive and fun threads on sowal.com. this sign issue just happens to be hitting some of us pretty hard. are you a lurker and couldn't stand it anymore?

has anyone seen the sign just north of SEagrove Market, on little ole Hwy 395? It is so tall, it looks like there is going to be a big bus stop or train station built next to it very soon. It is massive!!!

Minnie, at least one of the free maps is paid for by advertisements, so there are plenty of shops and restaurants marked on the maps, along with the major EastWest and NorthSouth roads, so you should have no problem finding your way by signs.

Tootsie, I've seen that sign. Someone pointed out earlier the sign on Hwy 331, located on the south end of the bridge. It reads,
"Welcome to Walton County
Home of the Beaches of South Walton"

Did they change the boundaries of WalCo to end at the Choctawhatchee Bay?

Minnie is a direction/sign lover. She can't help herself.

I am sorry, but I have to chuckle a bit at all this...I have never missed anything on 30A because of a lack of signage.

Somehow we never got lost on 30A during 13 summer vacations.

Because I know the area, I am going to get lost every time I read the Welcome to Walton County sign, which is posted somewhere in the middle of the County (east to west). Maybe we should email the Commissioners and ask them if this is a "sign" that Walton County wants to dump NoWal.
