Funny Sign Sighting

On Sunday, Kenny and I travelled to Clarksville, MO to view the Bald Eagle population that winters along the Mississippi River here in MO each year. Clarksville was definitely the place to be to see the eagles. We figure we easily saw 50-100+ near the lock and dam and roosting in the trees along the river banks. Having such good luck at seeing the birds at Clarksville and since it was such a great day, we decided to continue on into Illinois and travel down the Great River Road to see if we could find some more. (Remember, we specialize in nerd outings, so what's fun to us probably is boring to others!)

As we crossed into Illinois, we came upon a very small town with a General Store/Convenience Mart and that was about it. I think the town was called Pleasant Hill and the I'm pretty sure the sign said it had a population of 140. The store had a sign out front and here's what it said, "Eat Here". There is nothing unusual about that, however the line below it kind of ruined it: "GET WORMS" Yep, the sign read, "Eat Here. Get Worms." Clearly, having someone proofread the sign would definitely have come in handy. As usual, we didn't have a camera and I didn't think about taking a picture of it with my phone. Kenny and I were laughing too hard to think clearly and opted to go a little further down the road before stopping for a snack!
