In the last few days, some mysterious signs have shown up on our street:
These have sprouted from all of the neighborhood tree trunks (and phone poles)
These are clearly awesome. But what do they mean? It’s anybody’s guess. Perhaps…
– There is indeed a “pot” garden in the area (besides ours, which Anna prefers to call a “container” garden) and there are deals to be had
– “Weeddings” are on the cheap for brides and grooms this summer… (although it’s unclear whether the sizes refer to the number of attendees or the wedding party itself)
– A local kid is trying to start a summer business and will share more specific details (like how to sign up for such a service) when the time is right.
I just spotted a new one that is in rainbow colored marker across the street! But I’m not sure if that helps strengthen or weaken any of these hypotheses.
Any thoughts out there?

You know my thoughts on this–but I’m thinking it’s the pot garden… I wish ours was a pot garden but alas it is just a pot garden. Contained in pots. A garden in pots. I actually do like calling it a pot garden…
I’m hoping maybe the author of the signs will come by with their marker and add some more info… like a phone number or email address… I was actually tempted this morning to write underneath the message with a message back.

I think you should write a message back on the sign. Start a posted sign dialogue…a real life “wall”. I was thinking that the sign-maker might have been referring to a “wee” dding, like a small bell sound. He might be peddling peanuts or ice cream. But $20 for a large ice cream seems a bit steep.
