Hollister, California is a real town that has been around since the 1870s. Unlike the fictional town created by a corporate clothing company, Hollister is no where near a beach. The town is about 45 miles east of the Pacific Ocean. Seagulls occasionally make their way over the mountains. Hopefully, they are able to find their way back.

Figuring Out the Meaning of Figures
This sign is posted at Hospital Road, where it dead ends on the eastern bank of the San Benito River. See the man and woman figures on the sign. Can you figure out what it means? Is there no holding hands from this point forward? No frolicking allowed up ahead?

No making out? If so, it's a very polite sign.
ReplyDeleteI did some research and it really does mean no making out, but it doesn't stop there. Penal Code 314 is Indecent Exposure: http://www.shouselaw.com/indecent-exposure.html
ReplyDeleteand from what I've read, that's quite an expansive subject.
Yes, but make 'em prove intent!

Just say no.
ReplyDeleteJebediah, thanks for the link.I guess that symbol was the most decent way of getting the point across. It also makes me wonder if there are a lot of couples who go out to that part of town to break the rule.
ReplyDeleteRoger, now that would be an interesting jury to sit on.
hahaha...that sign is really intriguing!
