There was a draw bridge we would drive over all the time, and at one end there was a big rotary. So everytime we went over the draw bridge I would see the big "Rotary" sign. I thought for many years "Rotary" was some strange term for "Draw Bridge". I was terrified of draw bridges, so seeing "Rotary" (there are a lot of those here!) just made me panic.
