What a difference a year makes.
It's almost a year to the day since we last joined our friends for a trip to Lake Champlain. This time around we even stopped at the same gas station - which led me to take a snap of this motel sign across the road once more (top: 2004; bottom: 2005). It's definitely the same sign, but it looks like it'll take CSI Upstate New York to figure out what actually happened here last Winter.

Quite the laughworthy catch.

I guess they thought the black tarp in the back would really add to its legibility. Overall nice work. : P
