Palouse, Washington

One of my favorite things to take photos of are the welcome signs that greet you upon arriving in a town/city. If this interests you please follow along with this hashtag #WelcomeSigns

Home, Washington

While this wasnโ€™t the first welcome sign photo Iโ€™ve taken, itโ€™s the first one I specifically traveled to get. I love how varied the signs can be, some are very simple, some very intricate. All are unique :)

Kettle Falls, Washington

Pretty cheeky sign which I enjoyed. I fortunately avoided meeting the resident grouch.

Point Roberts, Washington

This one took some effort, Point Roberts is an exclave with no land connection to the rest of Washington and the United States. Visitors have to travel through Canada to reach Point Roberts and vice versa. Unfortunately the community was hit very hard during the pandemic as it was completely isolated. Now that the border is open again, I hope it recovers.

@amay206 I was surprised to realize there is a Grass Valley *OREGON* (I live here)... While for decades being nostalgically enamored with Grass Valley CA. Like a wake up call, your photograph is setting in motion a plan to experience OUR Grass Valley!
Thank you!
@Katharyn This makes me so happy, itโ€™s pretty small but itโ€™s fun to visit new places
@amay206 There's a nice bookstore in Gold Beach which has a little coffee shop selling some of the best pecan sticky buns outside of Pennsylvania.
@fvehafric This is why I love social media. I would have never known this, thank you!
