A local Rock radio station which LOVES to 'turn heads'.
Now that I have your attention!
I do realize that billboards can smother a location to death, not to mention
destroy the look on an area, but there is a strip of these 'boards' at the approaches to one of the bridges in Halifax
and I couldn't resist 'capturing' them the other day as we were whipping past.
In a way I suppose these could tell a little bit about a community.
I don't suspect we are much different from any other North American city.
My niece Brynn is the newscaster at this station and the lady above is my brother-in-law's cousin.
Some of these ads are very 'local' in nature while the majority are 'national' ones.
Now if one was clever enough, one could 'string' all these billboards together
and make up a limerick/verse/paragraph that would be hilarious!
And since I do not fit into this category whatsoever, I thought it would be fun
to throw it out to you guys!!
I know some of you would fit quite nicely. Even if you don't think you are good with words,
give it a try! See what you can come up with by looking at these billboards and being creative!
Have fun!
Oh yes, a WINNER will be picked at random from everyone who enters a verse or whatever using the billboards above as your source.
And the prize will be a few things that are indigenous to and made in Nova Scotia! Here is a photo of the 'booty' that could be yours!
