I like the Georgia one because I always feel good when I see that sign when driving away from the Hartsfield-Jackson Airport.

.....Depending on what side you enter from its more like Welcome to D.C be on your P's and Q's

I really like the newer Minnesota's sign. It really symbolizes what Minnesota actually is. I like Florida, as well as Wyoming and Idaho.

I never been a fan of Iowa (smile?) and Nebraska.

I think Wisconsin's, Montana's, Minnesota's, & Illinois's look the best.

In fairness to NY, many of their signs that I see (and I live practically on the border of Rockland County) look more like this one:

I've seen generic looking signs for many other states, also.

That wasn't even all the states. I didn't see Maine, NH, CT, most of the New England states. Maine makes it a huge deal when you cross into their state, lol.

Do you know where those signs are? I've never seen them.

Maine's welcome sign looks pretty straight forward to me.

LOL..I see what you mean.

I really like Maine though. It's clean and quaint, kind of old fashioned, the way life should be!
