July 6, 2013: Youngville Station at the intersection of US 30/218 in Benton County. Over multiple days, I traveled the then-newly-signed Lincoln Highway Historic Byway across Iowa for its 100th birthday.
Since this week is the Lincoln Highway Association’s annual convention, this year in Denison, I thought I’d pull out previous blog posts related to the historic transcontinental route. Mostly, it’s for the photos.
- Great Plains Trip: Last summer’s vacation, spread across multiple blog posts, covering the bricks in Elkhorn, monuments in southeast Wyoming, central Nebraska, and the Grand Island Seedling Mile.
- The Linn County Seedling Mile and the now-demolished Bloomington Road Bridge
- Centennial coverage: 100 years after the designation of the route; photos in Clinton, Linn, Benton, Tama, Marshall, Story, Boone, Greene, Carroll, Crawford* (or not), Harrison, and Pottawattamie counties, and the relocated state line
- Plainfield IL, where the Lincoln Highway meets the Mother Road
