My World Tuesday: Crossing that Walk

We're simple people, my daughter and I. Small things can amuse this. This crosswalk is an example of a small amusement. Or should I say this solar-powered talking crosswalk manufactured by Stop Experts Incorporated. "Stop Experts? There are experts on stopping?" My daughter was beside herself with laughter. Her little dog wondered what the joke was. He can't read.

I forget to mention the sign is bilingual. The lady inside who does the talking is not,  however. Illiterate speakers of Spanish are out of luck at this intersection; illiterate speakers of English stand a chance.  (I note that none of the sentences above have end punctuation. Anyway....)

If you follow directions and are polite to The Driver, you can continue on your way enjoying the very beautiful gardens that line the streets of Historic Wilmington. 


If you keep walking and turn this way and that way and again and keep going, you might come across the very beautiful St. James Parish church, in the garden of which stood a state of St. Francis. This is a lovely place for illiterate dogs confused about humans who laugh for no apparent reason as they competently, politely, cross the street.
