sense of humor...NJ DOT has one!!!

this is a photo of the road (a moderately well-travelled state highway) about 50 yards from my house. i *SWEAR* i am not makin' this up:

the road maintenance guys were out here a couple of weeks ago, patching cracks with tar. (you can see the squiggly bits on the side.) i am not sure whose idea it was to add a little decoration at the same time, but i would TOTALLY hire that individual, because i think they must be fun to work with! (this is the ONLY non-utilitarian bit of tar in the entire 5 mile stretch that was patched; i feel weirdly honored that it is practically in front of my house!) ♥

here's a photo with a little more perspective:

now every time i get in my car to drive southwards, the road *LITERALLY* smiles upon me...and of course i cannot help but smile back!!! :)
