Sign Collection

I like to snap photos (or have my "co-pilot" snap photos) of the different state signs. It's something fun to look forward to on long road trips. I missed out on more signs than I've captured, but I'm working on it! Hopefully this summer I'll fill in the voids, which pretty much is the entire east coast. South Carolina has an awesome "Welcome" sign that I missed last summer. It's pretty elaborate. It's kind of like a brick wall with "Welcome to South Carolina" on it and several palm trees are planted on either side of it. None of the photos in my collection can quite hold a candle to it, but they will have to do for now! I threw in a couple other signs that mark places of interest too. Enjoy :-)

  1. WOW! I have never seen such a beautiful sight such as that AR state sign. It is absolutely breath taking.....I may be partial though.
