best yard sign


There are many "NO CASINO" yard signs up and down Riverview Blvd. near the Chain of Rocks Bridge, but this one wins best new yard sign by a mile !

Our neighbor Gretchen Meyer expressed her feelings about a possible new casino across from her home by painting this sign, which she put in her front yard across from the proposed casino site at the foot of Historic Old Chain of Rocks Bridge. Her artwork incorporates important symbols of the Chain of Rocks Mississippi riverfront area including the bald eagles who nest here each year, an outline of the bridge structure itself, one of the historic old water pumping stations located in the center of the river below the bridge, and a bicycle wheel representing all the bicyclists that use the river front trail and cross over the river on their trail rides.
