I have a neighbor who’s had a “Drive Like Your Kids Live Here” sign by the street for YEARS. Yesterday it was gone. Maybe the kids grew up and left the nest.
Gotta keep looking.

Bump!
They're out there... I saw this one today (but on my motorcycle so it don't count)

Since you met the original challenge and no one else has done it again, just issue a new challenge. I haven't seen any of those signs anywhere this week.

Ha! I found one of those damn “Drive Like Your Kids Live Here” signs. I’m gonna claim it.
New Challenge:
Your truck and an inappropriately located portapotty.
Homeowners usually have one for contractors to use when they do remodeling work on a house. But this one has been on this curb for over 5 months and I haven’t seen any evidence of work being done. Maybe it’s for their houseguests.

What? No errant porta-potties anywhere?

unless someone else beats me to it...

Not sure what the point of this port-a-potty is. It is in the back corner of a parking lot at the human services / welfare office. You could argue that it is there for the clients, but there are numerous fully functional bathrooms inside the building. You also get a bonus shot of a homeless guy building random rock cairns.
Gratuitous fresh winch installation and porta-potty shot!

Next up:
Your machine and something with moss on it.

You could have tested out the new winch by hooking up to that portapotty and skidding it a few feet.

Gotta wait for a shitbag to go into it first, otherwise where's the fun?

Something with moss you say? We went to look at a house and property today... it was in the middle of several farms and way back in the woods. There just happened to be these moss-covered railroad ties where I parked.
Next challenge: Your ride in the middle of a beautiful field or grassland, scrub or whatever. It can be on a road or trail... tread lightly.

I mis-remembered the challenge. I thought it was "at a grassland", I didn't really catch the part about "middle" of the grassland until now.
Acceptable or not? Humboldt Bay National Wildlife Refuge grasslands...
I await 00Sebby's ruling...

That's a place I would like to go to. I only fault you for the tiny pics.  Proceed.

My wife says my pics are at least average size!
Next up... your machine with a high school, college, professional team sign that is a representative of a person or group of people, not an animal or a thing. For example, a sign saying "Lexington Minutemen", "Eureka Loggers", "Cleveland Indians", etc.
Teams like Broncos, Panthers, etc would not work.
