I have at least another 47 at home (I'm at work), but I'd like to kick off 47 as soon as possible.

So here's the road I took from the town I where I grew up to the city where I went to college.  I drove a lot of Illinois 47 pretty regularly so it has a special place in my heart.

Those undersized direction tabs make me giggle. Also good to see some Minnesota route pictures that aren't mine!

I think I've seen photos of US47 signs posted along Montana 47.  We'd be really lucky to have an original poster of those in this thread though.

Here's the third 47 I promised
