I-85
SB coming up on BL 85, which is the old I-85. It's a pretty
substandard freeway by today's standards. |
Approaching
US 176. This road leads directly to I-585, which was ruthlessly
abandoned by I-85 when it selfishly relocated to a roomier area. |
Here
we are back at I-26. |
West
I-26. |
West
I-26 again. |
Them
mountains over yonder are in North Carolina. |
And
now we are, too. |
An
I-26 scene in NC. |
US
74 joins the interstate here near Columbus (teeny tiny town). |
The
Appalachians loom over I-26 south of Asheville. |
There
are some curves, too, and just a little bit of traffic. |
Signs
at a quick breakfast stop near Hendersonville. |
An
I-26 shield after breakfast. |
Na
na na na Bat Cave! |
We've
made it to the old western terminus of I-26 in Asheville. But it now
continues north (west) to Kingsport, TN. |
The
split. |
I-240
is only signed here, not I-26. Billy Graham Freeway... yikes. |
I-240
and I-26. |
Big
shield, little shield. Sorry for the blur. |
US
19 and US 23 are in 1 mile. We'll stay with US 23 all the way to
Circleville, OH, from here. |
Future
I-26. I guess I'm not really on the road I thought I was on.
|
Bunch
of roads, exits, and curves on the interstate in Asheville. |
Oh
yeah, I-26 is here, too. |
I-26
shields are painted in the left lane here, for the left exit I-26 takes.
Despite this, I still missed the exit. |
And
here's where I ended up. |
Good,
now we're back on track! |
I-26
is not signed here, although every other route through Asheville is. |
Pretty
wildflowers. |
