I'm in Canton Ohio for my son's graduation. At the end of the week we're going to Orlando. So I will have a fresh batch of Ohio and Florida signs to contribute over the next few weeks.

As for the game itself, I can finally get back in in a few hours (minutes?). I have a 261.

UT-261NR by Paul Drives, on Flickr

US259...trying to find a typical (24" high) shield was difficult around I-20 for some reason.  So my pictures of it weren't very good.

AND OF COURSE US261 THE BEST US HIGHWAY EVER

I found this photo on my phone from the summer of 2014. This was taken on hwy 21 south of Forest, ON. I was taking a photo of the cool storm, but there also happens to be a highway 21 shield on the right :)
