Sandbridge Signage

So about that wine in illicit cups that I mentioned in my last post. It wasn’t that the wine was a problem. It was that the cups that we drank it out of that was.

I know what you’re thinking, wrong cups? Well, let’s just say our rental house was the best labeled space I have ever seen. Everything had a label, so you were pretty much ALWAYS sure what house it belonged to. Now, as someone with a beach house where people are always coming and going, I can see where the labels make sense to make sure your stuff stays at your house. Even if things like labeling every single hanger in every single closet do seem a bit extreme.

The thing that didn’t make quite as much sense, and gave us more than a few laughs, were the signs spread around the house directing us how to enjoy the house.

“Put your feet up, enjoy your time here. Please remember to place things back where they belong”

There were others, but I think you get the point.

Ironically, in a place where all the houses have names and most have big signs outside showing their names, there was no name sign. If we had stayed the whole week, we might have made one. To go with this fine view:
