be careful
Hmmm... Reminds me of a Disney cartoon in which the park ranger is reading out rules, a seemingly endless list of "don'ts" and finally says "...and don't do that either!"

Pacific City Oregon. Large sign above the entry way. Guessing about 8 feet across. Great food. Great beer.

It isn't exactly NAPA (for non-USA Pentaxians, NAPA is a major auto-parts supplier, stores everywhere).

A sign that is not seen often!

Having travelled to Australia a number of times, I was informed about the salties, the snakes, jellyfish, spiders, sharks, stonefish, and even cantankerous 'roos. But I had to look this one up -- watermelon-sized cones dropping from the bunya pine. Yikes!

Apart from all that, it's a great part of the world. And, having retired, I do miss working with my Aussie associates.

Craig, where were the clues that led you to that (correct) conclusion?

OK, Mr Google found it pretty easily, with a question "large falling cones"
The first article found in Google was in regard to Warragul in Victoria, less than 30 minutes from my home town.
The sign was actually in Bright in Victoria in the high country just an hour from my present and last home.

While visiting California's Sierra Nevada's the falling cones were large enough to make a fairly loud whistling noise as the fell. Followed by a loud thump when they hit the ground. Was crazy.

Graphic sign. It seems that during the Australian summer, even frogs are crazy for ice cream
