Ed. Note: Black/Rat Snakes usually emerge around June, sometimes falling out of trees. Anyway, they don’t bother people and eat rats so while, jarring at first – release ALL the rat snakes!!

Having seen some early reaction, while most agree that the signage is confusing, let me just say that yes, when you take a moment the signs are obviously decipherable but the point is that the 7am on the green sign for 5 of those days that you are in fact not allowed to park there is unnecessarily deceiving at first glance. OK, let’s argue about it anyway :)
Thanks to S. for sending from: “11th and Florida NE. All 4 stolen and further damage from the brick used to prop it.”
