More about this marker. Visited this site yesterday - 3/13/2021 - to get my own picture of this marker. However, there is only the post at this time. And I'm sorry, I didn't even think to take a picture of it. But my husband & I spend over 15 minutes going up & down the street just to make sure it wasn't on the ground.
