I smiled when reading the sign, and actually lauded at “Your now beyond Hope.”. I hope they fix the grammar mistake though. Pun intended haha. Great post!
The sign on the bridge is hilarious. The Your versus You’re thing drives me nuts. In a way that’s disturbing. I shouldn’t be so put off by bad grammar.
You did that on purpose because you knew it would hurt us poor pedants. Bad WWN. I am a fully paid-up member of the Punctuation Police, and mistakes like that get full red pen service from me. I love the “no diving” sign – now that’s what you call covering your back!
Awwww. Don’t tick me off! I did it on purpose to entice you to pick up your red pen and come to Arizona and correct it because I KNEW at the very least that YOU would pick up on it! 😆
Don’t tempt me, I am more than capable of coming over to correct it. I take photos of spelling mistakes – my favourite mistake was in a grammar guide published by Penguin. I put it back on the shelf when I thumbed through and spotted the title: “GRAMMER” 🙂
I am always paranoid about making mistakes – ever heard of “Muphry’s Law?” It is a law by which anyone who criticises another person’s writing makes a mistake whilst doing so, but only sees it once the message has gone or the comment has been published.
There’s an idea! We were able to laugh and feel superior as we traveled beyond Hope! (I am permanently confused as to the spelling of travelled/traveled. I’ll keep a foot in each country and somewhere my spelling will be correct.)
I think I enjoyed the comments as much as the post!! All of them we’re great fun!
– punctuation intentional 🙂

I’m not sure the Hope-ees know it needs fixing. Or do you think it could have been intentional as a talking point?

I think campgrounds are just trying to piss us off by those signs that is just begging for exclamation!

It was a very barren desert campground. I think they needed to use their imagination to liven it up!

Spelling nazis are probably trying to dive off the bridge or throw the sign maker off it.
