March 30: Post a picture of a sign with the wrong type of route.

Rather than going for one of the quite numerous errors from my own state... here's a NE 26 that should be US 26 from Scottsbluff:
If you always take the same road, you will never see anything new.

Post fixed.
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.

Thank goodness this came up during the end-of-month catchup. I spent all of yesterday Ubering a festival.

all of April 7th:

now heres a beauty - US 40 Westbound near Steamboat Springs, CO:

and more - PM me if you are interested in specific locations of the next ones and all before if not already mentioned:





(not all ) but, many of these cheap-looking street view pictures are temporary compensators. i have real pictures i took myself but it would take forever to find them - which i currently dont have the time. (but even though many of these street view pictures will be replaced on my posts, dont worry, i will keep them on my flickr page and such if you are just dying to see them again). heres why: this darned OCD and hoarding has caused me to built up over 5,000 pictures on my phone of medicines, menial, meaningless stuff like tiles in the kitchen and rocks in the grass and the garage, some of it is hoarding, some of it is checking compulsions, i cant even begin to explain what it is - i really dont completely know myself - but one thing is for sure, im gonna put it in the guillotine once summer gets here and i am going to fix everything up. this school year has made my mental illnesses go down hill more than they already were. sorry for being such a pathetic pile of junk. it also wont let me delete all these old comments until the post is completed and updated and "perfect" for good. so you may think im nuts.

[3 three-lane roads coming]

Sorry for being a fudgetard again. I have my pictures coming but once again they are not yet on Flickr, and my OCD keeps trying to make me post crap at 11:57, 11:58, and 11:59 and it pisses me off so freakin much because now once again I accidentally went over the end-of-the month challenge. If OCD was a person, I would castrate it. Frankly, that goes for all of my mental illnesses. Please bear with me.

I have an AP Exam for Psychology tomorrow, but after school everything will be updated. I cannot tell ya how sorry I am. I am probably the most annoying member on this forum now. I feel terrible about that.

Here's one from the NY Thruway near Schenectady as I was about to drive into a thunderstorm.  September 8, 2012.



How about an Alaska thunderstorm on the Glenn Highway?  June 21, 2001.

THAT is an awesome photo.

This is an awesome challenge, but because I don't take pictures out in the rain (since my style is to actually pull over and get out of the car to take pictures of roads and signs–except for on the Interstate, obviously, but only because I don't want to get a ticket, not because I think it's too dangerous ;-)), or plan trips on days where it has a good chance of storming, out of all my photos I don't have any that fit this challenge (at least that I can remember–I got lots of pictures of cloudy and overcast days, though!)

Wow, it's almost 6 PM EST, and no challenge yet?!

Challenge: Post something your state is known for.

Here's box-beam guardrail at the northern terminus of NY 174:

As an added bonus, many bridges in NY are the same shade of green

I originally wanted to make this challenge "post something your state contributed to road design", but I don't know if box-beam guardrail was invented in New York, Wyoming, or even somewhere else!
