Hello from the Southeastern CT shore!

Long time roadgeek and visitor to the site here; I finally made an account to join in and share my personal road observations from my frequent road trips. I grew up in CT, but all of my relatives are in central and western PA, so I travel between the 2 states a lot.

You can probably guess what my favorite exit sign is, based on my username.  :D

Fun Fact: One of my great-grandfathers was a sign painter in Carlisle, PA and worked on the original PA Turnpike, hence my profile picture.

Welcome from the Bluegrass State.

Funny, I was looking at Zzyzx, CA in GSV just yesterday! There's a BGS near me that happens to have three "z"'s on it, which made me think of Zzyzx (the sign near me is much more mundane -- it directs traffic to a Fuzzy Zoeller golf course).

Are you the same zzyzk that MTR oldtimers may be familiar with?

freebrickproductions

May or may not be batticorn.

I also collect traffic lights, road signs, fans, and railroad crossing equipment.

Thanks everyone!  Nope, I have never posted on MTR before.

Zzyzx's site is still up, for those interested.
