Talkeetna: Even The "No Parking" Signs Are Different Here!

Snowshoe on Alaska birch trees.
"No Parking" sign in Talkeetna, Alaska. 
Everything in Talkeetna is a little unusual, including the "no parking" signs. This is not an official "city" with a mayor and city council, so the parking sign was put up by a local person, who strapped the top of a broken snowshoe to some birch trees. With a purple bungee cord.
