Well, you are driving through farmland and obviously they want to do everything they can to steer votes. They are not wrong but that's not the point. I'm sure if you drive through river deltas or park in front of a white water rafting company you will see the EXACT OPPOSITE signs there as weood or recreation
For a while I drove truck between the SF bay area and Los Angles and San Diego area . Back then certain freight companies would have semis that we would cruise I 5 at 75 to 80 mph to make some time.When I was younger and going to grade school we watched Interstate 5 being built behind the school. For years the giant earthmovers were at work removing a hill of homes and finally putting in the freeway.
We made several trips to Portland from Tacoma to visit relatives. That trip took a long time as the old US99 went through every town along the way. It was definitely one of those “are we there yet” trips. Now that same trip takes a couple of hours on a good traffic day. We can head down in the morning, shop and have lunch and be back by supper time if traffic is okay.
