Ask Me


While taking in the fine folk music of troubadour Matt Latroba at the Pte. Aux Barques Lighthouse Festival on Saturday, I spotted this couple in line at the food tent. Soon they settled in front of me and I was able to read the sign pinned to her shirt back.

Port Hope
A Cape Cod Style
Home for Sale
Call Lori Babcock or
Ask Me

With 20% of US home mortgages underwater and housing sales stalled, this women took it upon herself (literally) to help her realtor advertise a home for sale in nearby Pt. Hope. Truly a sign of the times, this hand lettered paper points to the desperation in the housing market in 2011.
