Oops, I brainfarted the time stamp into an assumption that 339 was opened yesterday. Yes, 340 can open at 4:05pm today.

Since I'm posting, here's another backtrack:

I'll throw in some backtracks, since I have just added some unusual content to my mainly Midwestern sign collection.

I get this impression that Idaho has very little representation on this forum, so I thought some Idaho-sourced content might be a special rarity here.  I insisted on visiting the house in Preston, Idaho featured in Napoleon Dynamite as the home of the titular character.  I passed this signage for Idaho 36 on the way.

They're not even exclusive to state highway systems.
