Signs of cheekiness abound in Maine, and even if I hadn’t seen the DailyPost Weekly Photo Challenge this week, I would have wanted to share a little Down East humor with you. Most of the time, Bert and I didn’t realize what we had seen until we were past the sign or the yard art or the homemade “make-do” that endeared us to all things Maine-ish. For instance, take the name of this motel on Route 1.
And then there’s this sign that told us how they really feel!
But the best had to be this cheeky number in Freeport near L.L. Bean. Might as well get two — it’s the special.
For more cheekiness, be sure to check out Weekly Photo Challenge: Cheeky.

Oh how I love a good road sign.

Me, too! They’re just sometimes hard to photograph! Bert’s pulled over more times than he can count. Sometimes, though, I just give up and enjoy a private laugh!

I like random cheeky signs, this is a great collection. Love that people can hacve fun while doing business.

I, too, love people with a sense of humor. In fact, good signs draw us in — for a cup of coffee, a souvenir trinket, or a glimpse of people happy in their locale. Travel’s great, isn’t it?

OMG, that sign is PRICELESS!!! Really made me laugh, thanks!

Aren’t people fun . . . everywhere! We love stumbling onto local humor and fun sayings. Makes us realize how human we are, and how much we enjoy smiling.

Ha ha! That was so funny. Good catch!
Oh, the Places We See
Thanks, Parul. It’s fun to travel and smile at the same time. We love to see different things wherever we go.

Yes….that “pay for both” sign is so perfect for Cheeky. Love all the signs but that last one is the best!
Oh, the Places We See
I agree. This just cracked us up! And we did a double take of sorts, wondering if we read it correctly!

Love those signs! Thanks for showing them.
Have a wonderful weekend,

We loved these signs, too. This is what you can see sometimes when you’re not on a tour. You’re just driving through the countryside and see the fun that people have.

These are so funny!

Thanks for taking a look. I love local signage. Gives me a fell for the area and the humor we all have!

Amusing signs have always been a delight! Cheeky but oh so charming!

You’re so right. And half the time, I’m not ready to take a picture as we’re driving past. Glad we were near this one for a few minutes. Happy holidays!
