At the small image size it almost looks like a "children playing" sign.

I was just going through my pictures from my June trip to Connecticut, which involved me going through NEPA, and according to this sign there were apparently no services in either direction at exit 131 along I-81 in Schuylkill County.

I guess the Comfort Inn did not want to pay to be on the blue sign.

Well, I just found another picture a few down that does contain a sign listing the Comfort Inn and Conoco at 131B.

I am not making this up; it is not Photoshop or AI.  This is an actual no left turn / no thru / no right turn in front of my house for a few days this week during a simple milling and resurfacing.  There's a parochial school down this side street for which the Parentmobile Parade lines up twice a day to drop off the kids and then pick them up.  To prevent crashes, only right turns are allowed here during those hours.  But for such a quick paving project, the project plan didn't include covering permanent signs or posting detours.

(Yes, I know I need to mow the lawn.  I just returned home from vacation.)

Um, I don't think that's the correct 30 mph banner...

The through lanes get a pull through, but the exit gets no guide.

Very backwards.

Very backwards.

The worst part is most people are probably going for the exit, which leads to Newark Airport and the Turnpike...

Well, they left plenty of room to add a sign for that.

For a second, I was asking myself, —What is a trip detector?

Thing they attach to the signals to put you behind when you're on a long trip, therefore ensuring you only get to your reserved hotel room hours after you intended to stop for the night.
