Miami to Chicago Roadtrip
May 16, 2007
Page One

A short stay in Tupelo and then I was finally on my way home. These are the last of the pictures of this trip, though this leg seems to have the most pictures.

 

I start on US 45 from the hotel and head for US 78 again.
 

And I find US 78 which in the future will be Interstate 22.

A US 78 shield and a MS 9 shield just west of Tupelo.
 

78 miles from Memphis from here.
 

Road scene on US 78.
 

A US 78 and MS 30 shield.
 

A sign indicating that US 78 will in the future be I-22.
 

Another road scene. The weather was variable for me this day.
 

The haze made some of my pictures turn out not as well as I would have liked.
 

Welcome to Tennessee! This is also the Memphis city limit.
 

On the outskirts of Memphis.
 

Here is the junction to I-240.
 

The large sign for the off ramp to I-240.
 

Now you pick east or west to head towards either I-55 or I-40.
 

An I-240 shield.
 

There's the way to the airport.
 

I-240 in Tennessee is under 20 miles long, but I seem to have gotten a fair amount of pictures of it.
 

A traffic light!
 

Here we go north.
 

Here we are at I-55 now.
 

An Interstate 55 shield. Until now I'd only had pictures of these in Illinois.
 

Here we run into a few US routes.
 
US 61 meets up with I-55 here. My brother's school is right off of this road as well and I've taken it many times in Iowa where it is called Brady Street.
