Sign Down

I awake to a beautiful day and go outside to see what there is to see in Native Suburbia. Glancing around the front yard, I realize that something is missing... my sign post! As I have mentioned before, it is used to display several signs that indicate why my yard looks a little different than those of my neighbors. I have seen many people stop and read it as they are walking down the sidewalk.

Upon closer inspection, I notice that the sign is not actually missing, but is lying on the ground among the plants. It appears that some determined idiot worked the post back and forth enough to break the metal. I had originally used a large branch as my post. After that got dug up and broken off a couple of times, I was forced to supplement with a small metal fence post that I screwed to the original branch. What must I do to protect my little sign from these vandals? I hate to go the concrete route, but I just might...

It is likely to be some kid or a drunken Forth of July celebrator in this incident. Unfortunately, this happens too infrequently to make capturing it photographically a feasible option. Although, it is fortunate that it does not happen frequently, or I would be REALLY pissed off.
