January 1, 2019:  Happy New Year!  Post photos of road signs including the word "new."

Let's do a bilingual "New" on New Brunswick 95 North.  August 7, 2014.



And a couple of "New" signs taken on a previous January 1, both from 2010.

I-95 (now I-295) North.

LOL I just passed a signal ahead sign with a "new" tab today.  If I knew about this challenge, I would have taken a picture of it!!

Here's this instead

It's a good thing I haven't been paying attention for a while, "˜cos that Challenge pretty much stomped all over rule #6.

Yeah, well, the law of averages over the past several months...

How do you mean?

Weeks gone by with no challenges and no photos at all.

What's the connection to rule #6, though?

I thought you were referring to the "three answers per post" in that rule.

Oh, gotcha. No, I meant the "one photo per Answer" part–one photo of all 1's, one photo of all 2's, etc. We had several of each number. (Although the Challenge asked for "sign assemblies", so you could also say that each different assembly is its own separate Answer.) :-)

January 5, 2019: All-text signs with exactly 17 syllables.

Rightmost sign. Unfortunately, this cannot be a haiku, as words would be split between lines.



Making this one a haiku would require splitting "New Hampshire", but no individual word would have to be split.

January 5, 2019: All-text signs with exactly 17 syllables.

I-49 in Shreveport, LA (the brown sign). If you have a strong southern dialect, you'll end up with less than 17. So don't pronounce Louisiana "LOOZ-ee-an-nah"  and veterans "VET-trans"
