That was my best idea for this thread...and it's totally doable.  Maybe we could open a shop at SDC and personalize 'em for people.

I see the company is still trying to sell off Celebration City rides. You got a spare $50,000 to $500.000 to put a few of them in the backyard, don't ya! ;)

On May 19, 2010, there was an awesome idea of making a M*A*S*H mileage sign that was outside of Hawkeye's "Swamp." It could point to places in Branson or the different SDC attractions. That was a great idea!

Thanks! I just tried to think "what would I be able to get by with in my neighborhood and NOT get the city called on me?" It is totally doable, and fairly simple, Map directions, cut a few fence posts, slap on some paint, and wa-la!

Remember, you have to make the arrows a little "cockeyed" and have the miles for each one.  :)

Do ya have any pic's of signs like that? I turned my compressor shed into an outhouse! (Just for looks). I've got an 8ft privacy fence, on one side of the yard. I'm thinkin bout cutting some boards, to look like doors, and windows! Maybe for a general store or somethin?

Install a $7 million water ride takes you and your family on a not-to-be-missed river adventure where passengers/ family armed with super-soaker water guns wage an all-out water war on the neighbors and postman.

You could probably scale it down to $5 million to fit the back yard.  We wouldn't want to overdo it.

Hire someone to sit in a booth all day and serve up funnel cakes or strawberries and ice cream at your whim.
