Description
Large billboard in the small rice-farming town of Eagle Lake, Texas, informs of the basics and boldly announces, “The place where God’s people receives God’s Word.” An attention-getter for sure, especially among grammarians.” For this degreed technical writer and editor, a divine find--eternally memorable.
I hesitate to point out that there is not a single mountain anywhere near Eagle Lake, Texas, though there might be a lake. Pretty picture though. Most ranches have a lake, which in Texas we call a "tank." I'm not sure why. Just reporting.

It takes a keen eye to truly appreciate the art in images such as this. Thanks so much, Jeff Iverson, for seeing the beauty and featuring this find, definitely "Off the Beaten Path."

This is hysterical! The English teacher in me rises up with the famed red pen! :)

The car just about ran off the road when we saw this. My sweetie knew to pull over immediately. While it was too late for this editorial consultant's red pen, the sign commanded my full attention and never fails to amuse me.
