Oh, it’s great when the sign for your town needs three posts to hold it up. And I thought being from Valatie (pronounced Va-lay-sha, not Va-lah-tie, not Va-lay-tee) was bad enough…

Update: According to a sign recently posted next to the above, well, larger sign, the entire purpose of it is for people to have their picture taken next to it. Apparently, that’s what is done in Wales, where the original version of this giant sign still stands outside of the train station (no longer in use, but still a prime spot for photographs).
