Anyway, the sign is apparently yet a work in progress, just like this country itself, 'vaguely realizing Westward.' (I think Robert Frost at the Kennedy inaugural.)
And who can know where it all will end?

Only Getting Better (and Bigger)
Whoever it is that is currently working on the Current Events Sign on Gulf Road and opposite the Post Office has struck again. This time, seven or eight substantial rocks have been arranged in a kind of loose curve behind the sign. I'm not exactly sure what the impulse might have been, and it does seem to me that seven is a bit of overkill for a relatively small space. On the other hand, consider Stonehenge. (Okay, it's a bigger space, but it has much bigger rocks, 30, 40 feet rather than 30, 40 inches.)
