Since I was 3 years old, I've been drawing highways on pieces of paper (and making interchanges out of clay) - my favorite is a bunch of my father's old business cards that I taped together and drew several multicolored cities on. (Yes, I ended that sentence with a preposition.) I also love reading maps, and going on new highways to new places. That's why I've been to all 46 states, 4 commonwealths, and 1 district of the United States. I've also seen 1 American territory, 5 Canadian provinces, and 3 European countries. I've taken road photos in many of those locations and put them up here, along with many people's generously submitted photos, for your enjoyment.
| If you would like to submit photos for me to post on this website, please email me. If you would like to use any photo on this website, you may provided I am the photographer, but please give credit, and if applicable, please link to my site or at least the page from which you took the image. If you would like to use any photo that was submitted, please ask and I will contact the relevant person, or notify me that you have contacted the person yourself. |
The above is a clickable map - the red states, provinces, etc. are places viewable on this website. If you're bad at geography, don't know what that little thing is that I put next to Cuba, or can't seem to get your mouse onto Washington, DC, I'll be nice and provide the individual links for you:

There are links below that pertain to certain states; for example, nycroads.com involves NY, CT, and NJ. Because this is for more than one state, I include it here, but keep in mind that these very informative links will not be found on the various pages. The exceptions are Steve Anderson and Jeff Kitsko; I link from specific routes of mine to specific routes of theirs.
