On the way to Nebraska again. |
Standalone shield on mainline I-80 for the exit. |
Facing south at the beginning of I-180 in Lincoln. |
The Intersection of the Beast. |
West end of NE-IA 370. |

Now on the other side of Iowa, in Dubuque. |
History including US 20's first bridge crossing the Mississippi River. |
|
|
Very rare state-name Wisconsin I-90 shield. |
|
Ultra-rare no-background standalone I-39 shield. I-39 is not co-signed with US 51 or any interstate for 8 miles between the I-90/94 split and north of Portage. |
Elapsed time to Wausau: About an hour and a half. |
|
The home of the Packers. |

Another Lombardi Trophy has joined these triplets since I visited. |
Rare state-name Wisconsin I-43 shield |
North end of US 151, downtown Manitowoc. |
At the time, 151 had a short wrong-way duplex with US 41. When the final part opened, it de-clinched the route for me. |
|
Deep cuts in southwest Wisconsin were needed to get US 151 four-laned between Dubuque and Madison. |

Iowa County Courthouse, Marengo |
Dual-signed county road west of Tipton |
|
Cedar County Courthouse, Tipton, a decidedly different vintage than Marengo's. |

Northeast corner of Muscatine, as it appeared 1985-2014 |
