This sign. It’s in Bossy’s neighborhood, and Bossy passes it a few times a week, either by car or on foot. A perfectly positioned bicycle reflector transforms an otherwise common warning for deer into The Watch for Rudolph.

Apparently life is pretty boring in the Poconos.

October 24, 2008 at 12:43 pmLOVE that! Where I live, there are so many deer that a sign isn’t necessary. You just expect to see one at any given moment. It’s tough on newcomers.

October 24, 2008 at 12:46 pmThis makes me smile. Hmm, maybe I need to get a red reflector for one of the deer signs on my road to work.

October 24, 2008 at 2:51 pmAwesome! *lol* I wonder if that would work for all the moose warning signs around here? No?
And no, I don’t live in Alaska…rather, Maine.

October 24, 2008 at 3:32 pmI want to live where I have to break for deer and not just other bad drivers.

October 24, 2008 at 4:53 pmSomeone did that in my grandma’s neighborhood too, but they used a much smaller red dot. My neighbor has one of those signs stuck in his front yard (did he steal it from somewhere?) and I always want to put one on his. Maybe this will be the year.

October 24, 2008 at 4:55 pmDamn Bossy. I just made my kids drive by this so I could take a picture of it for WRH.
Get outta my head, woman.

October 24, 2008 at 5:09 pmHee!! We have one of those here too, and as luck would have it, I took a picture of it, and used it for my christmas cards one year 🙂

October 24, 2008 at 7:48 pmHow magical!!! Rudolf on your road signs… *sigh*
We have clever people in Queensland who like to mess with public images too… for instance in Rockhampton, we have a whole series of bull statues (Beef Capital of Australia and all)… do you think ANY of these bulls are COMPLETE in the MALE sense of the word BULL? Uh uh! Everyone blames the uni students and their “initiation” ceremonies … hmmmm.
Aussie humour… so sophisticated!!

October 24, 2008 at 9:47 pmWhen they scrape all of the other bumper stickers and band stickers and political stickers off of our deer sign, they always leave the red dot sticker on his nose. Even the road crews (or community service sentence servers?) love it.

October 25, 2008 at 8:05 amAnd shouldn’t we all be on the lookout for Rudolph for safety’s sake? 🙂

October 25, 2008 at 3:07 pmI LOVE that sign! I have a special daughter named Vivian who is 14 and loves Rudolph. She wears Rudolph pajamas and Rudolph underwear all year round and wanted a Rudoph party for her birthday last year, which is so convenient since her birthday happens to be in JUNE (thank goodness for eBay). I’m going to print your Rudolph crossing sign for her. She will love it.

October 25, 2008 at 9:33 pmhey! i love that photo! would you mind if i used that for my christmas cards this year? (i’ll give you mad props)
Michelle in SF says
October 27, 2008 at 7:07 pmLOL! I love that!
We have a pedestrian crossing sign in my small town, that is located near a small skater park.
So of course, the plain boring round head of the stick man has been replaced with a Spitfire flaming head sticker (apparently a skater emblem of a sorts).
I laugh out loud every time I pass it – even made it my facebook profile pic.
Hope no one removes it. Sometimes vandalism is necessary 🙂
