It's gonna be slim pickings for me the next couple days. For instance, the only neighboring state or neighbor-of-neighboring-state 50-50 junction I have is US 50A and US 50 in Nevada.

So you get both endpoints of US 50A: the western end in Silver Springs:



And the eastern end in Leeteville Jct, west of Fallon:

Yay auxiliary Interstate routes!!! It makes for an easy post today :bigass:

One of my favorite cities in the south is Birmingham AL; I always have a blast whenever I'm up there! I always stay off I-459 in the Vestavia Hills/Cahaba Heights area whenever I'm there, and this is the way to get there from points south & west along I-20/I-59
