Three Rocks, CA → Salisbury, MA or Danvers or Boston

US 1 with state names as destinations by <name removed>, on Flickr

Note: Danvers and Boston are on the US 1 South sign in the background, and they are much more visible at full resolution. No, NH-Maine is not a city or town.
Clinched, minus I-93 (I'm missing a few miles and my file is incorrect)

Traveled, plus US 13, 44, and 50, and several state routes

I will be in Burlington VT for the eclipse.

Danvers => San Andreas (CA), in the Sierra Nevada foothills more than 100 miles east of the San Andreas Fault, and well within the part of California that won't fall into the ocean :D :

I was surprised to find a place named San Andreas in CA nowhere near the fault :sombrero:.

Anyway, once again the sign that I've played three times before (for Lleida, Esterri d'Àneu and Gausac respectively):
San Andreas => Sort


I could play it two times more, but it's hard to find a place ending in B, and even harder for one in V...
Supporter of the construction of several running gags, including I-366 with a speed limit of 85 mph (137 km/h) and the Hypotenuse.

Please note that I may mention "invalid" FM channels, i.e. ending in an even number or down to 87.5. These are valid in Europe.

7/8

Vilaller, Spain → Rochester, NH

MA 125 at NH 121 by Someone, on Flickr

The sign is in Massachusetts. No, the traffic light is not red on top and yellow on the bottom (blame the camera), but I'm not sure what it actually is.
