Full disclosure: I think Friends of the Carpenter did a (mostly) beautiful job with the “In God We Trust” sign, especially given the controversial nature of the project. But man, that slightly too big “D” in “God” is going to make my eye twitch at every single county meeting. It is, in fact, that big in real life, that’s not just a goof in the stencil.

See my story about the national motto finally, FINALLY going up in the council chambers here.
