    As soon as you set foot in Pennsylvania there's a fireworks store

    Obviously pot is more dangerous than Uncle Teddy shooting fireworks off the back of his truck next to all the young children in the family

      I love that the Dutch talk the same way about the Belgian roads

      Are the Belgian bricks uneven?

        Besides the obvious "welcome to [state name]" sign. Is there a significant change in architecture, infrastructure, agriculture, store brands, maybe even culture?

          It feels like traffic instantly doubles after you cross the California border, but that could just be me. The Palm trees are also noticeably different in Cali.

            I‘ve only been once to the US but do you by any chance mean California - Arizona?

            The Colorado River is nowhere near as wide as the Mississippi.

              Close, a little further north. Columbia river. Oregon to Washington.

                Even Asheville roads, post hurricane, are at this point way better then SC roads. Not saying we're spending wisely, though. I sure wish DOT wasn't just a highway/stroad development department.

                  The Missouri-Illinois border is the Mississippi river. Hard to accidentally cross it.

                  Edit: I take that back. I wasn't accounting for the crazy interchanges in St. Louis right before and after the three bridges that cross near downtown. So you have all the local traffic and exits for downtown piled up with local and interatate traffic crossing the bridges.
                  People love it.

                      In CA there's this injury lawyer who has billboards all over highway 101 from San Francisco to San Diego. Hundreds of billboards. His name on the billboards is Sweet James and he has a pony tail. Sweet James. I don't know how a lawyer could become so seemingly popular while using that name.

                      What about, "Something wrong? Call Ann Phong!"
