A suggestion from a friend of mine that I got before the road trip was to take a picture in front of each "Welcome to..." sign along the road. While we did start in Vancouver and went through Seattle, WA, we didn't get the "Welcome to Canada" or the "Welcome to the USA" signs, otherwise, each state is shown for the first entry, as some we left and returned. With that in mind... here it is:
Since we went through Route 66 for part of the drive we had to get a pic with the sign as well. It was not an easy sign to find, especially since it was getting dark out. This was just at sunset.
While at first I thought stopping to take a picture at every welcome sign would be a bit of a hassle, it turned out to be quite fun. Looking back through all of the pictures of me standing on the side of the road pointing out the welcome signs did make me laugh, but mostly because my friend kept taking my picture at an awkward moment when I was goofing off waiting for the picture to be taken. I'd recommend this road sign journey for other road-trippers as it is not only a great way to stretch after lots of driving but it also shows a record of where you been.
