Looks like I'll kick off number 10. This is Maryland Route 10 near Glen Burnie, Maryland. I took this just yesterday.
From the land of red, white, yellow and black.

Fairly certain it wasn't 24 hours on the 9s but what the hell...here's my I-10 Arizona and M-10 signs along with an I-10 BL from I want to say Las Cruces:

10 doesn't start until 11:38:33 AM board time.

Lastly, a New Jersey "1 and 9"...does it count?

I'll count 1-9 as a completely separate route. So if you have posted a 1 or a 9, you can also post your 1-9.

(Darn, my post was 8 seconds too early. I guess my computer clock is slightly off board time)

One question I'm curious about is for those not in Eastern Time, are the times under posts in your time zone, or are they in Eastern Time?

Let's continue with the 10's :)

This, and a few others downthread from yours. are way too tall for forum guidelines, which ask us to limit image height to 600 pixels, and width to 800 pixels. (For comparison, my Irish Loop photo on this page is exactly 600 pixels tall.) Since a lot of photos are being posted in this thread, let's go easy on our consumption of screen real estate.

This is at exit 130 near Thousand Palms. I just love these Freeway Entrance signs.
Come ride with me to the distant shore...

Interesting that the Mackinac Bridge is used as a control city.  I want to start exploring Michigan more.  (I already have a deep affection for the U.P.)

Numbers are peeling off this one (found in Drumheller AB)

Saskatchewan seems to be allergic to series D. I've never seen it on a shield. I've never seen Clearview on shields though. Found in Yorkton SK.

This is an older shield design. The buffalo of the top is now to the right of the 'Manitoba' text. Found north of Brandon MB.

Time for some 11s. I have a wide range of them.

First, back north of the Arctic Circle for AK 11. This one is just south of the Slope Mountain Camp turnoff, around mile 305. My avatar is a cropped and resized version of this photo.



Secpnd, a distance sign/route marker for YT 11 (Silver Trail).



Finally, dropping south of the Tropic of Cancer for our first from Hawaii, HI 11 at its east end in Hilo:

Gonna answer this question, which I don't think was addressed:

I'm in the Pacific time zone. The time on posts when I'm logged in is displayed in local time for me.

In your profile settings, under "look and layout", you can adjust the displayed time of posts to a local time...there is also an 'auto-detect' feature for adjusting this. (One can also see the 'forum time' when on this page.) In the relevant settings, my adjustment is "-3" (which confirms the forum time corresponds to the Eastern time zone). I'm fairly certain the local time is adjusted by default–I don't ever remember manually adjusting mine.
