Lake Wobegon ~ March 15

Lake Wobegon, Minnesota

“Lake Wobegon, where all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking and all the children are above-average.” ~ Garrison Keillor

You've seen those "Slow Children" signs. Well, there are no "Slow Children" in Lake Wobegon...

We have nothing but 'Slow Sheep' signs at the moment, we need to get some of your kids to chase them.

Definitely a sign for my grandchildren! LOL.

I honestly think that Garrison Keiller lived in Hastings-on-Hudson, as it appears that's what most of the parents here think...Hmmm...

What a great thing to find. I'm sure it would apply equally well to any neighborhood!

What a neat sign and attitude
Sheila16-Mar-2006 12:42
What a great find. Every town should have one.
Guest 16-Mar-2006 12:18
Fantastic sign. I've certainly listened to the phrase enough times to know this had to be Lake Wobegon even before reading the caption.
Karen Stuebing16-Mar-2006 10:51
I wonder if Garrison Keiller had something to do with this? Great find and funny.
Gary Winters16-Mar-2006 08:24

Bryan Murahashi16-Mar-2006 07:24

Coleen Perilloux Landry16-Mar-2006 05:20
Fabulous; positive attitude. I like that. (Our road signs say "Slow Men Working"--slow to say the least.
Kathy Pedersen16-Mar-2006 03:10
LOL.....What a find......that is too funny!
Guest 16-Mar-2006 03:09
Oh- - you already mentioned that!! Didn't finish reading your caption! Great find.
Guest 16-Mar-2006 03:08
