I've always had a weird love for graffiti. When I was younger I used to sign my name in a neat, legible manner. But towards the end of high school, once I started getting out in the world more and seeing more instances of graffiti, I changed the way I signed my name so that it looked more like graffiti, because I thought it was cool. And I still sign that way today! I thought it might be interesting to post a scan of my signature on here as well, but then my signature would be all over the internet. I don't think that's so safe with the fear and threat of identity theft and all...
This sample of graffiti was found on a wooden post, on the hiking trail at Multnomah Falls in Oregon. If I recall correctly, these falls are the second highest year-round falls in the United States, possibly the entire continent, and they are located maybe 30 minutes outside of Portland, off I-84, on part of the Historic Oregon Trail loop.
If you can't tell from the size of the photo, the graffiti was found on what looks to be a name tag someone stuck on this poor inanimate wooden post. I think the writing either says "Susan" or maybe "Sudan"; the first letter is an "S" for sure. The second letter might be either an "O" or a "U" but I'm not positive. I really like the bright blue they used to write the letters because of the how well it stands out.
The top of the sticker probably used to say "VISIT" and looks to be a basic sans serif, maybe in a bold.
