Thanks for the list. :-) Also, everyone is reminded that the March 7th Challenge remains open until all states have been represented.

On I-35W a few miles east of Justin, TX.

Turns out there was one in Kansas City, but it was a few miles west of downtown in Kansas City, KS.

Hi, my name is Exit 30, and I also drive a Porsche 917 to the farms and markets :):


QuoteMarch 24, 2017 Post a 2-digit Interstate shield with three or more digits in it.

Amazingly, I seem to have very few of these:


QuoteMarch 16:Post photos of signs on the same assembly that should be identical, but aren't. Examples are different fonts, different sign sizes or shapes, or assemblies where one sign is in error.

Just two different sizes on this one.

March 30 Challenge: Post a picture of a sign with the wrong type of route.  For example, a state highway that's in a US Highway shield, or a state route that's erroneously in an Interstate shield.  Construction areas can be notorious for this.

Challenge of March 11th:



Challenge of March 15th:



(very sorry for the same crap all over again - my possibly 3+ catch-up pictures are coming in 1 to 2 days)

Rather than an OCD or Depression or other mental limitation, this is a physical limitation as to why I cannot put my material in this post yet. I have no feasible access to my computer and Flickr to get these photos onto this post yet, until anywhere from 24 to 36 or so hours from now. I'm sorry for being such a pathetic pile of no-good clustershrimp. The only reason I have to go ahead and post this post without material is the simple reason that that would complicate the challenge thread continuity, with the end-of-the-challenge catch-up turning into a new month of challenges in just a few minutes
Now alternating between different highway shields for my avatar - my previous highway shield avatar for the last few years was US 76.

I absolutely love these shields that are in St. Louis! I find them to be fascinating and different.  :hmmm:
