Shouldn’t that sign read “LISTEN FOR RATTLESNAKES” or something? Just sayin’. In all seriousness, if you expect folks to stop & sit a spell in an area crawling with rattlers you might not be the right person to be entrusted with taxpayers’ money.

Just in case you’re cycling through Bleiblerville, be advised there’s nary a Justin in sight. Credit Flickr user Caryn-C with the photos above, taken while stopped at an abandoned rest stop in “downtown” Bleiblerville.

Rest stops really don’t deserve their reputation for lewdness, luridness and general low-life-ness so why punish the majority for the sins of a few? In fact, if you’re gonna tarnish the hallowed institution of the Great American (and other) Rest Stop you can hold it right there… there’s probably another one just off the next exit ramp.
