Mountain-ish

This exit sign on the westbound 10 Freeway is supposed to say Mountain. I can't tell what's up with the U, but there's either some paint or remnants of a previous letter or something making the U look sort of like an N. The first item of Friday's column is about the sign. Have you ever noticed the problem?

* Caltrans was out Friday morning to fix the sign. "It appears the 'u' flipped over and became an 'n,' " says spokeswoman Terri Kasinga. Mystery solved.

Dave, that's the way to take pictures of our freeways, with the camera pointing UP. So as not to show the trash along the bottom.

[Heh. In my defense, that section is uphill, unlike where the Norms sign is. -- DA]

On the truck, J.B. HUNT appears to be _B.hUNT at first notice. :)
