Signs

This past weekend I took another Saturday night trip to Flo's. Again, like the first week, it was very busy and full of life. I did notice something that I haven't noticed before, however. Most patrons at the shack are families. I also noticed that there wasn't a cell phone in sight. In an age where most of our lives are attached to a cellular device ( I am typing this post from my phone as we speak), it was very odd for me to not see any. I also noticed all of the signs on the walls. "No unsupervised children allowed on deck", "No fishing", and many others that are not only witty but fit with the nautical theme of the space. Along with signs, there are many photographs on the walls of the owner deer hunting and fishing as well as various patrons. The fish tank is still a main attraction upstairs, with plenty of little kids watching in awe as the multi-colored fish swam laps around the large tank. Most of my time at Flo's this weekend was spent noticing the fish (I even made a fish friend named Bullet). I also took the time to look at all of the signs. Even in the hour I was there, I couldn't even make a dent in all of them. I would have to spend multiple hours there and possibly even days to read all of the various signs hanging on the walls and ceiling and even more time would have to be spent in order to look at all of the pictures.
