Connie Smith of Manchester sent me this license plate picture she snapped while in Mechanicsburg on June 19.

Remember Alf?

I spotted this one in the parking lot of my dentist's office earlier this week. Pretty self-explanatory, huh? (or should I say -- ahh!)

I'm proud say that my posts of license plates and funny signs are inspiring readers of this blog to pay a bit more attention when they're out and about.

Here are two license plates that people have spotted recently and sent to me for posting here.This one was spotted by YDR religion reporter Melissa Burke during a morning run near mile marker 20 of the Heritage Rail Trail County Park in York. She said a lot of runners meditate while they run or get into a zen-like state.My sister Amy sent me this one she saw in the parking lot of Holy Spirit Hospital in Camp Hill on her way to a checkup for my second niece, Lucia, who should arrive in the next few weeks!

Here's another one that plays off the model of the vehicle. Clever, huh?

Have you seen any other plates that play off a vehicle's model name?

I want to meet the owners of this car.

I spotted this one just before Thanksgiving, while spending the weekend in Baltimore with friends.

So, this is my latest thing.

During the past few months, I feel like I've been seeing vanity plates everywhere. Or, maybe I'm just on the road more than I'd like. Anyhow, I decided these are a form of sign spotting, and one that most travelers can appreciate and enjoy.

(Don't worry -- I only snap these if I'm stopped at a red light behind them. I've seen plenty more good ones that got away because there was no chance to safely snap a picture.)
