In Memory of the STOP sign.

They replaced it with a Light.

Very sad. Old instructions to Thirdgen Ranch used to be "turn left at the stop sign. Don't worry, you can't miss it...." Boy you cant. 6ft wide, 6ft off the ground, with a bright red blinking light on top. IMPOSSIBLE to miss.

Re: In Memory of the STOP sign.

"Turn at the STOP sign" was much better than saying "Turn at the new fancy intersection"

If u missed that thing you had serious issues lol

Re: In Memory of the STOP sign.
