I can finally post something, but less often, because I'm having larger gaps in my sign numbers as we go higher.

... and that will be the last current California state route entry until we get to 905.

Darn, I was just about to post this.
Haha I was hoping for that too. I might get to drive the Extraterrestrial Highway this year! At least we got some Nevada desert goodness in there.
If 377 isnt a US hwy picture I will be amazed.

Be amazed by the Badlands of South Dakota.



For whatever reason, it's an surprisingly popular number in my own collection.  In addition to SD and the US route, I had NY, AZ, and HI to choose from.

I am amazed! Im even more amazed that we got South Dakota included so late in the game! I think this is the firsr SD state highway posted so far.  And I love the Badlands. Everyone has to visit there at least once.

I'm also amazed that I can post again 1/2 hour after my previous picture. (I wont just yet)  Sometimes we get stuck for a day and then BAM 5 posts in a row.

Sorry I killed 375. I didn't know Extraterrestrial Highway existed.
