Saturday Photo Hunt ~ Theme:  ANNOYING

psh2.jpg

 

The theme for today is ANNOYING.  I find it very ANNOYING to have a sidewalk blocked off due to refurbishing of a building, forcing pedestrians to walk into the street.  And I find it even more ANNOYING during the holiday season when those sidewalks are filled with shoppers.  Photo taken in Sarasota at St. Armand's Circle.

Great choice! That certainly is annoying. Especially, as you say, during one of the busiest times of year!

Have a good weekend. :)

Mmm... it DOES seem they could pick a better time to do this type of work. I think things like this ... and ALL MAJOR ROAD repair should be done int the 9 pm to 3 am time slot!

ack! such lack of thought (or caring) on their part, doing work at this time of year in the middle of the day! how very annoying for you!

Oh yes, definitely. Any kind of construction is so annoying but if we want improvements made then we must endure.

(The worst one for me is having to take a detour when I'm out driving. I usually get lost. lol)

Enjoy the weekend!

Yes, that looks quite annoying. But I'm sure a little sacrifice can be beneficial in the long run. Nice of you to drop by. Take care!

Hello..Nice to have a new visitor to my simple blog!! I really agree with you on this. We have a big Walmart here and they have decided to do the roads during Thanksgiving and Christmas!! DUH!! Why not wait until AFTER the holidays..That is definitely annoying!! It is a mess and everyone is backed up for miles!!

Quite annoying! On the other hand -- I don't know if there is ever a good time for construction. It's nice when it is done but a pain in the process.

I played.

Not good timing for sure! Happy Saturday Terri!

Michele sent me to see you, Terri.

I agree with you about the construction. I work on a University campus and they're constantly putting up some building or other or refurbishing a building and as a result you have to walk half way across campus to get around the construction site. It's damn annoying!

Happy Holidays despite the annoyances, Terri!

Yes, that's life, they prefer that you lie on the street like a pancake ! But it's in the whole world like this, maybe not in the bush !

This is annoying. In NYC so much scaffolding was put up around some of the buildings, it was hard to see where you were.
Congratulations on your new car. Thanks for stopping by.

What really gets me is when an area is surrounded by cones and hazard tape for days or even weeks without there being any sign of work being carried out.

find construction obstruction annoying as well -- here in Vancouver we're in midst of total upheaval as construction for 2010 Winter Olympics continues at furious pace.
