Welcome Signs Across America

Sunday, December 11, 2011
We love adventure, going on a  road trips and taking photos. In fact, our lifetime goal is to explore All 50 States.  Each trips we set out a short list plans for what we wanted to see. Part of the fun of a long road trip is spotting cool " Welcome to State sign" along the way. It 's so easy to get excited every time  you cross state lines. Not only you are about to experience a new part of America, but it's always fun to keep an eye out for each unique individual state's  sign.

Although we realize it didn't quite happen like that — mostly because many of the signs were simply impossible to stop near on the highway to snap a photo. But we're still lucky we've seen a few.

📍  Here's the list of the Welcome Sign:

This sign welcoming us to ARKANSAS - One of the cleanest and nicest  welcome center I've ever seen. If you ever  near downtown Memphis, TN it only takes 10-15 minutes drive to get to this welcome center.


This sign is welcoming us to ARIZONA  -- After crossing the New Mexico border we continued west through northern Arizona.  Between Navajo and Sun Valleys.


This sign welcoming us to COLORADO -  Located at Pikes Peak National Park (Colorado Springs), Garden of  the Gods is one of  the breathtaking attraction of this park. Make sure you stop-by at the Balanced - Rock!


Welcome to the sunshine state of  FLORIDA - This sign is located at Tampa area, we came here during the New York Yankees Spring Training.


This sign is welcoming us to GEORGIA - We had a blast on our Savannah Tours, we can't wait to go back in the near future. 


This sign is welcoming us to KANSAS - One of the stop over we had on our 12 days road trip to the West Coast.


This sign  is welcoming us to KENTUCKY - The state where the famous Kentucky Friend Chicken was originated (pretty obvious HA!)


Welcome to State of  NEVADA - Your trip is not complete without visiting the Sin City of Las VegasIf you don’t visit this Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas Sign, did you even come to Vegas? This is easily the best way to make your friends envy.


The sign is welcoming us to MISSISSIPPI - Near Memphis approximately  45 minutes drive, you can never miss the Mississippi River.


The sign welcoming us to NEW JERSEY -  We decided to stay on one of the  hotel in New Jersey border of Manhattan on our short trip to NYC. Are you a fan of the show " The Cake Boss?" if you are, then you should visit their bakery in Hoboken  to try their homemade pastries.


The sign welcoming us to NEW MEXICO - This welcome sign greets visitors and travelers  on Interstate 40 at the New Mexico-Texas border.  The Roswell UFO Museum is worth a visit.



The sign welcoming us to state of  NORTH CAROLINA - border of Tennessee via Tail of the Dragon at Deals Gap


The sign welcoming us to state of  PENNSYLVANIA -  near Pocono Mountain 


Welcome to  SOUTH CAROLINA - This sign is exclusive for Myrtle Beach Resort 




Welcome to the Volunteer State TENNESSEE - The Birthplace of Country Music. People drive from states away to come here to see the gorgeous colors of the Smokies.


This sign is welcoming us to WEST VIRGINIA - Wild and Wonderful


I’ve been surprised by how many others who have been on the very same quest. How about you? How many states  have you been? We would love to hear it,  leave your travel story below.
