I had a hearse and a limo pass me today like I was standing still way out in the middle of nowhere on a narrow two lane...double yellow lines. I wondered what the heck was the rush

Yeah, DC is one of the best places for out-of-state tags. When we lived there, we had a chart in our car of Diplomat tag codes and would look up what country the driver came from every time we passed one. Don't see any Diplomat tags around here.
Have I mentioned that my husband is a license plate collector? We have a collection of over 1,000 plates - some that are pretty rare. My husband also has a keen memory, so if we see a plate from Nebraska, he'll name what county they are from by their number prefix.
Some people who have property against 540 South near Apex built a wooden porch structure overlooking the highway during construction and continue to keep chairs and decorations out there to this day. It always has an NC State University Banner but is decorated with lights during Halloween and Christmas. During warm afternoons a man and woman can be seen on it enjoying a beverage. It is a good piece of local flare albeit peculiar and I wonder if others notice it too....

There's another one on the east side between 64 business and 401...near the Old Milburnie overpass I think.
I do something like that... kinda... maybe? I keep or try to keep a spreadsheet
of all the locomotive numbers I've seen. I thought I would have tons of the same
ones over and over but I think I've only seen about three on more than one
occasion? I can't for the life of me catch CSX 1, I've gotten as low as 2 but that's it...
