More Spelling Snafus on Signs [PHOTOS]

A lighthearted look at some spelling gaffes on various signs in the region.

As a followup to last fall's wildly-popular article about spelling mistakes on signs throughout the region, Patch editors in northern Connecticut have unearthed a second round of gems from the area.

Mistakes have been found on all types of signs, ranging from professionally-produced business banners to handwritten cardboard signs installed with duct tape, spotted in various local towns. Words which were misspelled included "gradations," "activites," "squirrles," "kielbsa" and "mounain."

Have fun perusing the latest lighthearted "gallery of gaffes," published with no intention of embarrassing anyone (all business name references are omitted). If you are out and about and spot another good one, email it to tim.jensen@patch.com.

I see they're squirrles; wouldn't it be better to be skunkles, beeles or raccoonles?

Both what?

As opposed to Christmas kielbsa, Thanksgiving kielbsa and the much-dreaded Arbor Day kielbsa.

I guess inconvience is better than incontinence.

Can't you get a migraine from mounain?
