defies explanation
I ended up in this tiny town because there was an unfortunate sign out on the highway that I wanted to photograph (although I will not dignify its message by posting a photo), and while I was at it, I went ahead and checked out the town. And that’s how I happened to see a weather-worn sign for a gun sale and a dinosaur in the same spot.
It was practically my lucky day.

Did that place used to be a Sinclair gas station? Their mascot was a dinosaur and had the fun statues on their buildings and lots. 🙂

It might have been. I can’t decide, because this is a *very* small town and I don’t know if it had “name brand” stations or not…

Definitely explanation defying, but now I kind of want to see the other sign…

Me too! I like the dino though.

Sorry – no photo of the sign. But if I tell you that I live in a *very* politically conservative area, I bet you can get the gist of it.
