The Volunteer State

(click on pic for larger image)

One of the many delightful quirks (at least in my mind) of a Daily Yak road trip, is that we simply must document said trip with pictures. And most importantly, with pictures of the welcome signs as we cross each state line!

Really, am I the only one who does this?

I have accumulated stacks of state welcome sign pictures (I've crisscrossed the US from coast to coast several times, and been on many shorter trips) over the years. I missed the Virginia sign about 20 minutes into our trip (we live so close the the Old Dominion that it hardly seems like another state at times). I'll have to get the shot on the way back, but I did get a good shot of Tennessee's sign several hours later.
