    I don't consider a pedestrian overpass to be a "bridge" for purposes of this game

    This isn't supposed to be easy. Not all states/countries will have all of the items. But I do know you can get close enough to Yosemite Falls

    Without getting into a discussion of "right or wrong", ABC, DEF, WXY etc. is what I am considering to be alphabetical order

I have sent a request to my dealer (Fun On Wheels, Frederick MD) and Cowtown USA, Cuba MO. If anyone wants to contact their dealer, we are looking at prizes with a max value of approx $100. The number of prizes awarded will depend upon how many there are

    Talking the tire irony (tirony?)

    +Just following up on my tire image, because I'm surprised nobody identified the irony I'd referenced.

    Down in the middle of the posts, off in the distance, is GoodYear... 8^D

    My first attempt for these points was in low-light conditions the other day, but I couldn't capture a clear image. Within the multitude of rock art, a large stone reads, "Whatever you vividly imagine, ardently desire, sincerely believe, and enthusiastically act upon, must inevitably come to pass."

    +Upon return this afternoon from weekend business in Owego, I decided to capture some images. The sleet and snow weren't predicted to start in this area until 1pm, and I began shortly thereafter. Naturally, I'd only be gone "a little while"...

    This was my first stop a few miles from home.

    +About a mile later, I stopped at the "Pearl Street School, District #11, Built c.1850, The Jansen Family spoke so often of Pearl Street, NYC, that the road past the schoolhouse became known as Pearl Street, Town of Shawangunk"

    I'll present another 1-room schoolhouse image a little later in today's presentation.

    +I'd taken my earlier big rock image just before entering Minnewaska State Park, and had a number of stops intended thereafter, including Eastern Correctional Facility:

    +Many of our lakes, ponds, falls and bodies of water are frozen, so I aimed for the Rondout Reservoir, and here is its Merriman Dam.

    For no points, this next image is about 7 miles west of the dam looking east near Grahamsville where there's a kiosk informing the viewer of the submerged villages.

    If your talking about Roadkill, he is putting the numbers in the message title, very top of his post. If not, disregard.

    I wonder if it would be helpful to limit submissions to once per week or something like that? I'm sure Irish will come up with a good system if this doesn't work for him.

    Maybe you could start keeping track on Google Docs and have a handful of volunteers be able to tally the submissions.

    I was thinking Google Docs might be a good way to share the current info too.
