Roadside Obscurities
#1
A thread to share interesting/obscure sights on the side of the road.

1.  Quicksand near Mississagua

A friend recently told me about a sign that was just west of Mavis along the 401 until recently warning of quicksand.  No longer there, but here is the Streetview of it from the past.

2.  No Trespassing in Kitchener

On my walks through Forest Heights, there is one house that screams of an interesting backstory.  There is a No Trespassing sign on the front lawn near the property line, along with a camera pointing towards said property line and a light pointed at the sign.  What makes this somewhat ridiculous, in my view, is that the sign is pointed not at the sidewalk, but at the neighbour's front door. I'm not going to share exact location (also the sign isn't visible from the latest Streetview pass in 2014), but it's off Westheights.
