I'm now out of N___ placename photos from the AARoads California photo collections. I'm not sure there are any more to be mined there, that haven't already been played, other than ones ending in "n" or "y".

Bet you're surprised, as I was, that I couldn't find and play this one earlier.

Bet you're also glad I didn't play Atlin (I'll save that for later).

Kansas City to Topeka (per Y rule) => Anchorage (AK):

Government would be tolerable if not for politicians and bureaucrats.

Substitute for my now-pulled Bunyan's Cove photo. This "new" photo was used long ago in this thread, but for a different destination, Manic-Cinq.

Heh. If I hadn't been hung over and slept late, I could have played a "B" ending in a rare "F." Oh well.

"That sounded stupid, didn't it?"

You snooze, you lose :)

Anyway, if you were thinking of "Banff", SignGeek101 played that a few days ago.

No, much more obscure than Banff.

The Noalejo sign I played a while ago was taken from Wikimedia Commons, not mine. Anyway, now I have a couple signs of my own. One has two towns, unfortunately both ending in A. The other, however, contains a town that doesn't end, but starts with A.
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.

The ___e ending letters (including one i pulled this morning) seem unpopular today.

Uxbridge => Eloy (AZ), and per Y rule also Picacho and Phoenix:
