W/NW: Signs

'gong-shi, (happy new year) and good luck everyone, No election activities around the Prison area please!'--funny. Reminds me of the signs along highways near prisons in Texas that say,"Don't pick up hitchhikers".

Colbrook Motel sign and Confederate History sign
by JOHN EARLEY, on Flickr

During the Jim Crow era, segregated facilities existed in Virginia. The Colbrook, a tourist court type motel, was owned by William Earl Brooks and his wife, Audrey Woods Brooks. Located on US Rt. 1, in Chester Virginia, the motel was open to black travelers who could not find accommodations elsewhere. The property is for sale and hopefully the sign will be saved.

Many of the final battles of the American Civil War were fought in the Richmond-Petersburg area of Virginia. There is a rich history and many of the lesser known battle sights have signs such as this one.
