I-75, Franklin, OH. Sorry - had to work with the contrast and lighting because I took this late in the day on Sunday.

I've spent a lot of time on I-75 and have most of it covered photographically.  So I'll go to it's northern end in SSM for my I-75 contribution.  July 11, 2003.



Lots of US 75 coverage also, but this time we'll go to the southern end in Dallas.  March 11, 2011.



Let's get some old style numbers with arrows on a Massachusetts paddle sign. This in Agawam.  December 28, 2012.

A very Georgia I-75 sign, complete with dotless i's and square D's (though, alas, lacking the skyline view from a couple posts up):

Junction of US-75 and MN-220 in Climax. US-75 north to Crookston was closed for construction (resurfacing, I think? I don't remember.) August 27, 2011.

For I-76, I'll take us to Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, along US 15 for this one, taken June 17, 2006.



This time, Oscar posted the one I would have for US 76.  Instead, let's go to the Blue Ridge, Georgia, area.  July 9, 2008.



I feel like we don't get to Texas very often in this game, so here's one.  Taken on Texas Farm Road 659 South in El Paso, November 8, 2003.

There's no doubting the "endiness" of the road, in this case. :D

The picture got me really curious, so just in case anyone else was wondering, it actually wasn't a dead end: https://goo.gl/maps/4bVeiQrVnTn

K-76 isn't even indicated on Google Maps. Is it really that short? Is there a hidden concurrence with US 59 to the north? Is there more to the story?

It was turned back in 2011 according to Wikipedia.
