This tree is one of dozens that was removed due to safety concerns. It was evaluated by an arborist and determined to be dying and in need of removal. Until further notice, the northbound and southbound Custer Rest Area along I-5 will be closed to all travelers.

We're here visiting road-trips.
Finishing off my road-trip back from Montreal today and at least there was some visibility unlike the trip up there on Monday. Needed a bathroom break and stumbled across this rest area. The little building was so quaint inside. Like someone's front room complete with a roaring wood stove keeping the place toasty. Coffee urns available, local area info, and of course said bathrooms. All funded by donations. I took a coffee and popped a donation in the box. Was a great rest from the road!
This shot was taken from the rest area at the highest point of the East-West Highway of Malaysia. Overlooking the mountain ranges….cool, fresh and refreshing. My family and I traveled this highway on our way back home to Shah Alam from Kota Bharu which is approximately 570km. We have to pass through the main range from Jeli, Kelantan to Grik, Perak.
Titiwangsa Mountains (Banjaran Titiwangsa- Malaysian language) is a mountain range that forms the backbone of the Peninsula Malaysia. The range starts in the north in Southern Thailand, running approximately southeast and ends in the south near Jelebu, Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia. The highest elevation is the 2,183 m (7,162 ft) Gunung Korbu. The range acts as a natural divider, dividing Peninsular Malaysia into East and West Coast regions.
Several of the more popular tourist destinations in Malaysia such as Cameron Highlands and Fraser's Hill are located on the range.
These trees were trimmed back to provide more light to the rest area and promote healthy growth. Until further notice, the northbound and southbound Custer Rest Area along I-5 will be closed to all travelers.
A very silent rest area along the A36 Beaune-Mulhouse with just my Fiat Punto. This "aire de repos" near L'Écouvotte is called Chevaney.

A nice break from the road after crossing the state line into Pennsylvania and the rest stop gave a good view of the just starting off fall colours.

I flew out to New England for the weekend before my seminars in Connecticut. This gave me an opportunity to nail three states that I didn't have pictures from. So, in this little upload, there are pictures from Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine.
Yay! Only one state left. See if you can figure out what state I'm missing from this collection.
Unfortunately, the weather really, truly and verily sucked all day - overcast and rainy. But I like New England. Drive around for an hour or so, and you can cover a bunch of states.

Westbound rest area on US Route 30 near Upper Sandusky, Ohio. This one appears to have been built in the early 2000s.
This is US Route 30 between Bucyrus and Beaverdam, Ohio. This is a divided highway with both interchanges and ground-level intersections. I am sure there is a technical name for this type of road, but I just call them "Hybrid Highways" since they have many design features of Interstate highways (like wide shoulders, interchanges, no signals / stop signs, and higher 65 or 70 mph speed limits) while also having features of other rural roads (such as lower traffic roads intersecting and the road being open to slow moving traffic prohibited from interstates).
I personally like this type of road, but they seem to be the most common in the northwestern part of Ohio. US 30 is built as this type of road from the Indiana border to Canton. There were once plans to continue US 30 from Canton to East Liverpool in a similar fashion, but those plans never materialized.

This tree was at a rest area along I-5 somewhere between so. Oregon and Centrailia, WA. I thought it had a lot of personality.
Check out those paint lines! The parking lots have all been restriped to help drivers know where to park.
Trimming and removal of hazardous trees at the rest area was important for the safety of thoss stopping to rest here.
Also known as the Anderson-Smith House or Bide-a-wee this house is now a Kentucky Welcome Center along I-24. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
When we lived in Klamath Falls, this rest area was usually the first stop on trips south. At this point, Big Red and I are 420 miles (yes, 420!) from home.
The roadrunner was first built in 1993 from trash from the city landfill. It was moved in 2001 to it's current location at the I 10 east bound rest area just west of Las Cruces New Mexico. It has been "refeathered" a few times over the years with recycled objects like sneakers, toys and VW headlights for his eyes.
