More to come!

I take it that you came through the Seattle area too? If you did, then did you see the sirens along Interstate 5 in Fife?

Haven't gone through Seattle yet, in Amarillo right now still. It is a trip In Progress lol.

One thing you're not going to see out west are those low gas prices. Here in northeastern Oregon, regular starts at $3.89.

If you'll be passing through Nanaimo, keep an eye out for electronic sirens. They recently installed a new flood warning system for the Colliery Dam. No one knows exactly what model they are, but they are definitely electronic. As for mechanical sirens, there is an active [as far as I know] "Canadian Carters" fire siren in Qualicum beach, which is a small town near Nanaimo. There are also sirens at the BC hydro dams which are scattered around the island, and I wouldn't be surprised if there is an air raid siren of some type at the big airport in Comox. Nice pictures by the way.

Should of given us a shout on here. Would have been great to meet up and take a tour of the city. Lots of variety here. Hope you have a safe trip!!!

Oh that's okay, it would've been nice though. We were through Amarillo pretty quick though.

I pass both of those Vortexes on a regular basis. I live right in that area.

#1 is near Council and I-40, #2 is at Rockwell and Reno.

STH-10 In Holbrook, AZ you say? Where at?
