Don’t Bother    

by

I went the extra mile, no reason except curiosity. If you’re thinking of doing the same don’t bother; it ain’t worth it.  

To help others, I made this sign and placed it where anyone about to travel the mile could see it.

WELCOME TO THE EXTRA MILE

Home to no restaurants, no gas stations, no stores, schools, or hospitals. No traffic lights, theaters, and not a living soul. It’s like an unfurnished apartment in the middle of nowhere. The souvenir shop is a bit pricy.     

At the end of the mile, I placed another sign:

Drive carefully. 

Enjoy your stay.
