I took a quick business trip to Wisconsin and managed to get off the interstate south of Milwaukee and find old U.S. 41, now designated WI 241. This was the first sign I ran into and the best of the bunch. I guess they wanted everyone to know that there was NO VACANCY by painting the NO onto the sign.

I've driven by this place at least every other day for the past 14 years and I hadn't noticed the cabins on the side of the house/motel until someone (not from Franklin) told me about them

All of these hotels and signs, one would imagine, will be gone as the street is Boomgaarded (it can be a verb, too!)
