is what the sign stated*, and so, while I drove south toward a vacation, the Yard Man obediently did some road work. While he was saying into his phone, "This week I could use fifty bunches of your candy-stripe beets, and twenty dozen of those heirloom tomatoes," I was thinking to myself, "This week I could use great piles of those fabulous clouds, and some glorious blue sky. Oh, and I'd definitely like some beach!"
Fortunately, there was a sign a little further along that said End of Road Work and the Yard Man could put away his phone, and stop his work of ordering for Oasis (the food co-op where he's co-manager).
After a couple more hours had elapsed (followed by more hours) and then several more hours, we arrived at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, where (I'm pleased to say) I immediately began taking delivery of my order!

*Between the two of us, the Yard Manand I strove to obey all the road signs we encountered. But I'm sorry to say, we were stymied by this one that said BUMP!
