MS 788 on US Alternate 45 near Artesia:


Cullman County 788 on AL 91 near Holly Pond...odd mile marker above the shield:


MS 32 Scenic Route:

Dakota CR-63 at MN-110, with a city of West St. Paul sign. May 26, 2018.



Faribault County takes the cake for ugliest county route markers in Minnesota. (That I've seen so far!) These two intersect the north terminus of MN-253, along with I-90. May 05, 2018.

CR-21



CR-119

...because 789.

Old Keys shields for FL 789 at FL 64:


Turning around the other way yields this one-off "City 789" sign; possibly the only one of its kind in Florida:


Virginia Secondary 789 near Dulles:

Jim

I also have a Florida 789 from Sarasota.  March 27, 2004.



And Wyoming 789.  This on its concurrency with US 20 in Shoshoni.  July 17, 2003.

More Faribault County ugliness! All from May 05, 2018.

CR-2 in Bricelyn, where it intersects the south end of MN-253.



CR-16 at MN-254. This is the route of US-16 before that route was eliminated in Minnesota after the completion of I-90.



CR-17, where MN-254 ends in Frost.

790 is next.

I-790 in Utica - oddly, I couldn't find any standalone shields on this route, so here's a button copy sign:


MS 790 near Ackerman:


Catch-up count-up...PA 33 in Autumn:

Replaying a January 2, 2010, from US 29, for Virginia Secondary 790.



Here's an I-790 in a shield assembly, in Utica, of course.  June 4, 2013.

Is that flower sticker retroreflective?




Hennepin CR-60, where it intersects CR-62 just west of where MN-62 ends. July 15, 2018.



Hennepin CR-81, where it begins south of the I-94/MN-101 interchange. February 26, 2017.

Not sure - they're mostly faded as it's an older design. Maybe someone owns an old sign.

We're still a couple dozen numbers away from the next one in my collection, but I've finally gone back and catalogued all the routes I have (well, except my photos from yesterday that haven't been processed yet), so let's start doing the ones I haven't previously played.

We begin in Miami Beach with FL A1A (2018-08-20):



GA 1 in Summerville (2018-12-07):



GA 3 in Marietta (2018-07-22):

Jackson CR-4, at MN-264 east of Round Lake. Worth noting that this very spot is actually in neighboring Nobles County, with the county line about where the driveway ahead on the left is. May 05, 2018.



Comically sized setup for Jackson CR-12, on CR-1 near the MN-264/I-90 interchange. May 05, 2018.



Le Sueur CR-112, where it intersects MN-112. May 12, 2018.

Really beat up Le Sueur CR-26 shield in Le Sueur. May 12, 2017.



One of those times where my standard scene framing doesn't work. :sombrero: Le Sueur CR-28 near the west end of MN-112 in Le Sueur. May 12, 2017. (Here's a non-silly picture.)



Martin CR-8 at MN-263. May 05, 2018.

A set of 21-25-64! :-D ;-)

Nobles CR-21, which continues on from the south terminus of MN-264 in Round Lake. May 05, 2018.



Nobles CR-25. This route was MN-266 up until 2004, and street blades in the county still refer to it that way. May 05, 2018.



Pine CR-64, along with some really old embossed parking signs, where it intersects MN-123 in Sandstone. July 19, 2017.
