I have photos of U.S. 26, all the Interstates, Oregon 224 and 217 (which are already posted), some photos of Oregon 99W, and photos through downtown. They are all from 2006. Matt is working on updates to his Portland page right now. Otherwise I could use help with captions for the photos I have.

Thus far I have nothing for Detroit and hope to go there myself this year!

Yup, I have nothing else photographed in Michigan right now. I want to head up there and extensively drive the Interstate system this year.

At this point, I've got all of Michigan's Interstate highways clinched, except for an 18 mile stretch of I-196 between Exits 44 & 62 (between Holland & Grand Rapids).  I could've clinched them on Labor Day, too, if it wasn't for a darn flat tire...

Oh well, there's always later this year.  :)

I'd be happy to help with captioning any pictures you have, thanks to the magic of MapQuest, Google Maps, and Wikipedia.

while you're in Grand Rapids, please track down that MICHIGAN US 31 cutout that I keep hearing rumors of.

Hmmm...I've actually never heard of that cutout shield.  If someone has an idea on the general location, I can see if I can track it down.

Rawr Apples: PM me about your Michigan trip in March.  I'm from SE Michigan, and can give you some suggestions of things to see while you're in the area, roadwise and the like.  :biggrin:

I don't have any idea of the general area.  It might be in Grand Haven, which would explain why I failed to find it when I looked in Grand Rapids.

I have dozens of pics of the state, since I live there. I'll be more than happy to contribute!
