The tally: 3 homes sporting No signs, 15 with Yes signs.

With a warmup in the offing, be careful! [photo]

S. Maple near W. Stadium http://annarborchronicle.com/2013/09/15/s-maple-near-w-stadium/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=s-maple-near-w-stadium http://annarborchronicle.com/2013/09/15/s-maple-near-w-stadium/#comments Sun, 15 Sep 2013 21:42:07 +0000 Dan Ezekiel http://annarborchronicle.com/?p=120505 Possibly due to a hard-hitting exposé in The Ann Arbor Chronicle, these directional arrows at Kroger on S. Maple have now been repainted and oriented in the proper direction. [photo] The whole city can breathe a sigh of relief. Thanks, AAChronicle!

Fourth St. Near Madison http://annarborchronicle.com/2013/07/05/fourth-st-near-madison/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=fourth-st-near-madison http://annarborchronicle.com/2013/07/05/fourth-st-near-madison/#comments Sat, 06 Jul 2013 02:07:43 +0000 Dan Ezekiel http://annarborchronicle.com/?p=116153 This sign is languishing in the grass across the street from my house on Fourth St. (between Madison and Jefferson). Perhaps it hasn’t been put up because there is no “South bound W. Madison”? [photo]

All other arrows in same parking lot, including those at the other end of this lane, are correct. Perhaps this pair is the work of a disgruntled road painter who wants to return to British rule?
