My husband took me to a quaint bed and breakfast in Michigan, but it was hard to relax because I was so distracted by all the apostrophe abuse!!
The next visitor should bring some wood filler and fix those mistakes!

Well the second one could barely pass, but the rest are inexcusable.
Tell me that second sign does not say “light’s ou’t.” Light’s is bad enough, but ou’t? I think maybe it’s just a knot in the wood or something… Here’s hoping.

Is there a website for “your” and “you’re?” I’m about to lose it over that one.
