Yesterday's challenge was rough. Today's requirements are much easier and much more fun! No one has posted the combinations I intended to post yet, so that means more variety! I wonder if anyone has been to northern New Hampshire.

US 3/US 4 was the first I looked for but no luck.  I've been on most of US 4, but one of my small gaps includes its overlap with US 3.  I bet many are like me who have been nearby but not on that stretch.

US 93 and US 95 in Las Vegas, Nevada.  October 25, 2003.



US 23 and US 25 in western North Carolina.  December 26, 2004.



That's all I can offer different from what the early birds posted.  So I'll repeat one of those in a slightly different location.

US 15 and US 33 on their concurrency instead of at their split in Gordonsville, Virginia.  July 25, 2011.

June 2: Post a junction of a US highway ending in 3 and a US highway ending in 5.

Pickin's are slim when both digits are odd. I love that people have already posted 15-33 and some others that I didn't even think of. Here's one that no one else has posted yet:

US23 and US35 in Chillicothe, Ohio

The signage doesn't tell the whole story, but this is US63 southbound at US165 in Stuttgart, AR:

And this one will be a repeat. US93 and US95 together in Las Vegas

I can finally rejoin the game (albeit briefly)!

First, the ever-useful US 93/US 6 (and US 50) concurrency in Ely, NV:



And another triple concurrency involving US 93, this one with US 26 (and US 20) near Arco, ID:



I don't think I have any 3-7's, and I know I don't have any 3-8's (because I have no 8's at all), but I'll be good for a few days after that.
