Where's Steve at?

[bandit957]

So....where's Steve at lately?

Maybe he's pooing.

So....where's Steve at lately?

I was wondering the same thing.  This thread had almost daily activity and now it's dormant.  Well, I hope that wherever he is, he's having fun doing tit.

I always had fun doing tit.  I have fond memories for said anatomy.

I have been doing a lot of night runs, and have had other things on my mind, and with winter setting in, it is not as safe to take photos at some times. I got some in reserve though, just have to transfer them over.

Bottom photo is southbound I-69/US 59 at Beltway 8 on the north side of Houston.

Good work, i knew that would be an easy one.

To be honest for a bit i lost interest in doing this, as well as being worked hard. I plan to get a decent camera for doing this with after i get my car on the road with decent tires, and a clean bill of health.

Top photo looks like the Indian Nation Turnpike between Antlers, OK & McAlester, OK.

It isn't a turnpike. and i've only been on the indian nation turnpike at night.

I guess i gave you guys too much credit for coming up with the locations, thought it wouldn't be that tough.

I've been slacking - Will get on it.

I think even Ray Charles would know it.

I would think Ray Charles would have less of a hard time identifying this state despite having stuff on his mind.

I get the reference...still looking, but not seeing it...

[SteveG1988]

I was heading west.

[Roadrunner75]

We're talking about this one, right?

[SteveG1988]

Yes

[Tom958]

I was heading west.

That's a good clue and I still can't get it.  I've found plenty of places it's not, though.

It was in 2014 too.

That can't be the Indian Nation Turnpike because the median is narrower and raised.

[SteveG1988]

Another Clue: It isn't a limited access road. There is cross traffic.

Looks like a 44 foot median, too, which generally means non-freeway.

Concrete dual highways are pretty rare in Georgia, and they have a variety of configurations with regard to width and material choice for paved shoulders. And most of them, it seems, run north-south.

GA 316 was an obvious early guess, but it has a narrower concrete right shoulder with cast-in rumble strips. The only place where I found the photo's cross section on an east-west highway was on US 76, which is in mountainous terrain. Really, the terrain reminds me most of US 27 where there's a discernable fall toward the Chattahoochee even though the river is quite distant. But US 27 runs north-south, and IIRC it's all asphalt. 

I Googlesurfed every newish east-west new-terrain dual highway in Georgia that I could think of, and quite a few north-south ones, too, before that clue was provided. I suppose it's possible that that the highway was actually dualized, but that would be exceedingly rare, to the point that I don't even think such a thing exists.

I could do a better job if my laptop wasn't such a piece of junk, but as it is I pronounce myself stumped. 

[Thing 342]

I'm thinking the E-W segment of GA-515 where it's concurrent with US-76.

[lordsutch]

The fact it's posted at 65 gives a clue that it's probably not in Georgia

Seriously, though... it might be GA 96 (Fall Line Freeway) westbound between Reynolds and Fort Valley. Limit is 65, concrete road with 44' median and asphalt shoulders with rumble strips, and somewhat hilly. I can't find the exact place in GSV that corresponds with that picture, though, so maybe not.

Here it is. Damn GDOT and their pseudo-random speed limit sign placement.

Wow, good job! I looked at the Fort Valley and Butler bypasses, but I didn't check the entire corridor.

[adventurernumber1]

Heh. For some reason the whole time I actually thought it was in Oklahoma, so I've been searching every divided highway in the state's hilly region all week   

How did I not think to check the piedmont of middle Georgia? 

Anyways, good job, and a tornado or something must've taken down some trees there since that 2008 image was taken on GMSV.
