"That sounded stupid, didn't it?"

The destination town sign is in the background, but I found the "indictable offence" warning in front the most interesting sign at this winter road entrance near the west end of NT 1 in Wrigley.

Smyrna ---> Albuquerque

(I previously used this assembly for Sedona, but I used a different one the time I posted an Albuquerque. I'm resisting the urge to re-use the New Jersey assembly to play Atlantic City!)

Winterpeg -> Guelph:

:nod: Winnipeg does have the coldest climate this far south.

Maxwell (via Y rule) -> Lovejoy (unfortunately with no Y rule option, though Jonesboro Rd is named for the city of the same name)

Disregarding wanderer2575's entry because noelbotevera's has a valid sign despite the strange description. Alternatively, I could interpret his Drummond Island as leading back to Detroit.

This effectively re-plays Detroit in noelbotera's photo as a followup to Drummond Island (which seems to be a township name) in wanderer2575's photo. See rule 5 in the OP  ("If there are multiple city names in a photo that start with the correct letter, you can continue the chain with any of them"). So both photos count, though in reverse order. while getting us back on track. Thanks!
