I'll take Landmarks and Geography for....

[Scarab KV]

My job has me traveling through areas where other members live, so I figure I might as well have a little fun with it.
Lets see how well you know your surroundings when they're out of your environment.
I'll post pics from my cell of structural and geographic landmarks. Could be city skylines, signs, buildings, bridges, etc and you answer in a question format beginning with" What is or Where is"
Some will be pretty easy, while others will be teasers meant to trip you up. Look for clues in the pic combined with clues from my posts of my current travels to find the answers.

Example

50533

"What is the Statue of Liberty" or "Where is NYC"

Have fun with it:)

It's the design that shouldn't be used this far north on account of that whole "huge chunks of ice that fall off and down onto the inside lanes of traffic because ice forms so easily on the structure" design. :)

West By Gosh Virginia is where my dad is from. We went white water rafting on the New River. We got out right under that highest bridge in the country. I forget the name of it. I think it is halfway between Beckley, and Charleston. I think it is I-77 that took out a lot of Grandma's farm. :( It was just the turnpike, and was only two lanes. When it became an interstate, it ran right through the old barn and farmhouse.

Dad said he never saw a deer once while growing up. They had deer season closed from sometime in the 1920's until sometime in the 1990's. The country boys killed them to eat. Dad said he had fresh meat once a year when they killed a hog, otherwise it was salted meat (no refridgeration).

Looking north northeast from I-80/90 westbound.

That bridge, I've always wondered about.
It's at approx. the same height as 80/90, and way to high for the need for a swing bridge in that shallow water (maybe 10-12 feet at best). And then of course 80/90 is fixed, and past 80/90 it quickly goes down to 8' and then 5 foot of water. If you're heading down to P-burg (used to head down there occasionally and walk up to the bars (CASA BARON, John?:sifone:)), you have to kind of snake through some areas that may be as little as 3' of water, and that's about as far West as you'd ever attempt to travel on that section of the river.

[ILMORdude]

My dads side is from Ky and Tn. I remember being back in the holler in Bell County, Ky and hearing the gigantic blasts from the boys working on the tunnel. Never forget that. Granny lives 5 mins past the tunnel off 25E. Been thru it MANY times

Yeah. By the time you get past the 80/90 bridge all bets are off. The rock structures start. But once upon a time..... when it was deeper... they got some pretty big boats to Ft. Meigs. Now when you cross the I-475/US23 bridge at some times of year you can see the rock shelf under the water like a reef. That's why all those Walleye fisherman can be in waders in the middle.

There is a produce inspection building in the middle of US 19 at Fanning Springs, Fl. All trucks, including pick ups are supposed to stop there. I stopped once in my dually, and they guy in the shack looked pizzed, and wave me on through. There is also one on Hwy 27 where it crosses the Suwannee River. Branford I think is the name of the town. They serve no purpose whatsoever. Just another way Dixie County can bring in money. It's one of the poorest counties in Florida. When your main industry is prisons, it doesn't speak highly of you. There are only three traffic lights in the entire county.

[Scarab KV]

This tower

Name the express way and bridge.

[Scarab KV]

I made a reference in a post this week about a port i was loading at to help with this one.

[Bobcat]

Major Deegan expressway goes under that bridge in NY, or close to Yankee stadium.

Thought for sure it would take a local to get that one.

Oh, and the bridge in the 3rd pic is??

[Scarab KV]

What is Port of Philly?

Hopefully you had the right dock and weren't carrying dairy products.

Otherwise it would have been a Philly Cheese Mistake. :o:leaving:

Of everything I should be banned for... that joke is the top.

[Scarab KV]

Didn't even need your charts:D

[Scarab KV]

This one should be pretty easy.

[Scarab KV]

This one may be not so.

[Scarab KV]

This pass comes prior to a bridge earlier in the game.

[03darkshadow]

You're right.
A little North for you isn't it?:D

[BUIZILLA]

runaway is Monteagle southbound?

i've been under both those bridges.... it'll come to me in a minute.... dammmm

[insanity]

This one should be pretty easy.

Reminds me of the Ohio Turnpike, Eastbound from Cleveland.

[ChiefApache]

Reminds me of the Ohio Turnpike, Eastbound from Cleveland.

Actually the pic B4 the snowy bridge is the Appalachian trail.

[Scarab KV]

[Scarab KV]

[Scarab KV]

This should be a little tougher. May take another driver to get it.

[BBB725]

I got an easy one almost everyone can get.

[BUIZILLA]

I got an easy one almost everyone can get. NB I-75 - Belleview exit.. at the walkway curb to the museum, you'll see a brick in the Walk of Fame Row with my name on it... :driving:
there is another brick elsewhere with my family team mentioned as well..

[BBB725]

4 min, maybe a little too easy:sifone:

[BUIZILLA]

BB, did you come south through Nash-ATL Fri or Sat?? my nephew told me Fri night he was stuck in Peachtree City cause 75 and 24 north was closed, and he couldn't get back to Nash?? sounded like BS to me.. :sifone: he knows all the ATL party farms..

Friday night and it was bad 20 mph one lane, maybe 50 cars in the ditch.

[ChiefApache]

I figured you were going to hit some of that.

[Scarab KV]

Guess I've been slip'n here.

[BBB725]

Kinda reminds me of the old Wade house in Wisconsin right off of 23 but no snow in the pic so it's farther south

[Bobcat]

Salem Illinois ?

Valley Forge National Park

My family is all around that area- Devon, Valley Forge, Bryn Marr. My Grandfathers cremains are scattered around the observation tower.

My dad was a 4 letterman at Valley Forge Military Academy, he has a light post with our name on it there!

[MarylandMark]

Thanks for the memories- I use to drive that area every day. My Dad moved further down the "Main Line" a few years ago to get back the sleepy little town feeling so haven't been through there 5+ years.

Really? As what?

I'd love to work on bigger projects like this. But I work for a smaller company that always gets shut out.

[Scarab KV]

Guess I forgot this one

[BBB725]

Really tough one, I crossed all three of these bridges coming back from Florida to Wisconsin, where are these?

[Bobcat]

The first looks like Kentucky going into Illinois.
