Location. 38° 50.799′ N, 77° 18.274′ W. Marker is in Fairfax, Virginia. Marker is on North Street (Virginia Route 236), on the right when traveling east. Marker found missing on 2/20/2017. Remembering my own mischievousness as a kid, I would guess that this marker was taken by youngsters for the homophonic hilarity value of a sign that sounds like "Poseur Garden". Perhaps it was relocated to the front yard of someone they know from school. My condolences to Mrs. Pozer's family for this disrespectful act. Touch for map.
