  1. I haven’t made a comment on here for some time , the last was the Capeville Train Station waste. On to this subject, Chincoteague has the most billboards and they do lay out the marsh views quite well . Exmore has a excusive amount of them and several dot the local landscape. Must be great money returns or the things wouldn’t make it for long . For some the beauty is in the $$$$ and for others it’s letting people know about services.
    So it brings me to this , does anyone have any information about a pair of brown signs missing from the Eastville landscape. It took many years to get Virginia Logos to put them in place . Now for some reason no one seems to know where the Indiantown Park signs have gone to . One has it’s poles left , the southbound one and the north bound one is missing sign and both post. This wasn’t easy to do without being seen doing it by someone .
    I spoke with Eastville police , county officials in many departments and nothing seems to find the answer, So if you know call the Parks & Rec. department , Thank you (757-678-0468) Signs are collectable and signs are costly . Thank you for reading my thoughts , nothing will go away unless local government deems it or someone steals it . Enjoy the signs for whatever they are for.

  2. Its like going in reverse seeing these being put up to the early days of advertising. Why would these be used when clearly ( and are used elsewhere on RT 13 ) a digital type which would only need 1 sign doing multiple ads be practical. Next you have to wonder why those advertising on them, ARE !

  3. Signs? Lol! When you leave Maryland all bets are off heading South on 13. Virginia is the armpit of Route 13 DelMarVa.

  4. Surprised Cape Charles doesn’t have a billboard that reads “Only Old Rich White People Allowed”. Or “Kickbacks & Kickouts”. Or “Rich Whinos Enter Here, All Others Will Be Evicted” or ” Lake Cape Charles, Come Drown With Us”.
