Wow! Yes! A sign like that would be a pretty fantastic thing to have had.
Happy to see your new baby climbing onto the trailer headed for home

Thank you! It's supposed to be here by the 22nd so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. There's a tan Hard Top (no doors) on the front of the truck if anyone's waiting on one.

There's a sand dune behind me with 1 1/2 inch sand spurs in it, they will go through a flip flop. Regular lens would have shown the gas cap I was so close.

Ouch! That wouldn't be good...

We have the little BB sized spurs around here. They won't go through a shoe, but they cling to socks really well!

I do have a chestnut tree in the back yard at home. Now THAT is like a sand spur on steroids! They will stab you through a leather boot and in under an hour, you will have a puss pocket with a spur broken off in your foot. Wicked Stuff! But the chestnuts are incredibly good to eat...

Especially when roasted on an open fire… or so I have heard.

Dig one up and post a pic. Never heard of such a thing. I 100% believe you but I need to see it. I love the dunes now I have to worry about sand spurs?

You have to stand in them to find one when it goes through your flipflop/foot. Next time a tourist finds out the hard way why there is a path and wanders beyond it, I will get you one! It's easy to hear when somebody locates them.
