David is a misc.transport.road regular who lives in the Fayetteville AR area;
here are some of his snaps of the roads in AR, MO and a few in outlying areas.
You may notice that David rilly digs bridges. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.

	The road with a built-in excuse!
	On IH 20 east of Shreveport, This junction serves the Goodwill Ammunition Plant. You get a bomb with a smile here. Note the US 79-80 sign. US 79-80 cross under the IH 20 and head northeast to Minden, LA. This is about a mile east of the Bossier-Webster Parish line.
	Mmmmmmmm! Sine salad! Looking west along MO 266 just before MO 96 at Paris Springs. MO 266 turns south and ends at MO 96, but old US 66 continues westward. Mandatory turn/guide sign for WB IH 44. Photo is looking north on US 63 at Rolla. SHARE THE ROAD sign on MO 13 near Lowry City. Missouri is home to several Amish communities and there are occasional accidents when drivers aren't expecting horse drawn carriages. Never mind the Spanish Inquisition(If they toldja, You'd expect it then, woudn’t ya?)
	IH 44 special! The junction sine near j184 on the southern outer highway at Rolla. IH 44 and Business Loop 44 junction assembly someplace. JN sign for IH 44 and Business Loop 44 along Route Y at St Robert. This at j161. Now we know where IH 44 goes, but hows about MO 8 and 68? No cloo. The last is at j195 looking southeast.
	US 60 meets US 65 southeast of Springfield, MO at Galloway. A la the Utica-Rome Expressway; there is a railway level crossing in the junction.
	The same junction from the north, along US 65.
	Guide sign for eastbound US 60 at the James River Expressway and South Glenstone. The mast arm of the traffic light is festooned with street sines, then, eh? Thiss is west of the US 65 junction.
	“I Shall Call Him Mini Shield” part 2! Just north of the above shot.
	Northbound on Glenstone just past the James River Expressway. Republic Road stops at US 60, then starts again here (it got chopped up when the freeway was built).
	Which way do I go? Republic Road is to the left, Glenstone Avemue to the right... not that you can tell here. Taken at the end of the off-ramp for Business US 65
	Button-copy freeway signs along US 65 near Springfield: The first two are southbound on US 65; The third, northbound. Chestnut Expressway is a California style expressway. It leads west from this point.
	Looking westbound on IH 44 at JN 11: this is the temporary end of the US 71/IH 49 freeway Note the gore sign with attached junction number plate. The gantry is also a more common box gantry rather than the CA style usually seen.
	Westbound on the IH 44 at JN 161. Like oops, eh? MODOT kinda sporked up that pull-trough arrow. And I guess MO trumps CO for the longest business loop-161 miles! (David Backlin wants hazardous duty pay for playing hopscotch in traffic. Send contributions to this address.)   Then we have the style of gore sign that caused a lot of conversation on MTR in 2k4. Note the full-width concrete surface.
	Eastbound on the IH 44 at jn 184. As a general rule, Missouri doesn't post route numbers on the second Business Route Exit (though there are occasional exceptions). So WB on the IH 44 at junction 184 is simply posted as “Rolla” with no mention of Business Loop 44. Business Loop 44 meets US 63 a mile east of this junction
	There aren't many of these left since the US decided to abandon conversion to the metric system. Well not in MO, anyway; ME and NH are all properly poltically correct in this mode. “km” is off anyway, since it's in capital letters. Photo is looking East on I-44 a couple miles east of Rolla.
	Looking east at Big Piney River along old US 66 (also known as Teardrop Road in this section). As with many other “ retired” sections of old US 66, the date plaque is missing from the bridge.
	Looking west at Big Piney River along old US 66 In the lower left corner, you can see the remnants of an old reflective verge marker. Also note the HELLvetica weight limit sine. aieeee!
	Dead on shot of the Big Piney bridge.
	Close-up of that old verge marker at Teardrop Rd (Old US 66) and Temporal Road.
	Look pal, if you get THIS size, you’ll have to make a LOT of rest stops! Actually, these are just cleverly painted above ground petrol tanks. At Halltown, MO just off the IH 44 along MO County Route O(j 58-west of Springfield).
	Home-made confirmation marker on an concrete section of old US 66
	Indian Creek Bridge along MO County Route EE Formerly US 71 in the early 60's, formerly MO SH 88 before the 1960's. This is located on MO County Route EE about 3/10 miles SE of MO SH 59; southeast of of Lanagan.
	Old bridge over War Eagle Creek just northeast of Hunstville, AR. This is in Madison County north of US 412.
	Old 1940's bridge on Old Rudy Way, just off AR 282 near Rudy.
	Close-up of the Rudy bridge showing it was built by the WPA in 1940. This is a few miles west of IH 540 j24.
	This is along AR 282 SW of Mountainburg. There's no date on the bridge, It may have been built in the late 1930's to mid 1940's.
	The underside of the same bridge. Looks like native stone was used to build the bridge supports.
	The Galena, MO “ Y” Bridge-From the top, looking south.
	Two views of the supports and girders of the “ Y” bridge at Galena.
	The “ Y” bridge from the side.
	End of the eastbound off slip from US 78(future IH 22), at the CH 94 junction near Hamilton,AL
	A bit further west along the IH 22 Corridor; north of the freeway along old US 78, looking east. MS 178 goes nowhere past here, and you need to turn here to continue east. That or do an 8-mile trip to nowhere. But, then, maybe that's your trip. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
	Yes, it actually IS called the “ Pig Trail” AR 23 between Ozark and Brashears. It used to be a shortcut to Fatalville before the IH 540 motorway was built. Like ernk n’at.
	Mulberry River bridge on AR 23(the “ Pig Trail”) near Cass, AR. This area is known as "Turner Bend" along the river. The first view looks north, the second, south
	Old bridge on an abandoned section of MO 13 about a mile north of Warrensburg.
