So I'm back from another random drive to nowhere.
Observations:
The OH 161 New Albany bypass still has some signs in button copy (that is, little reflective buttons glued over the letters on a non-reflective background), which makes sense given when the freeway was built--the mid-1990s, ODOT was still using button copy at the time. Still, It's a pleasant surprise to see those haven't been replaced yet.
Some of the overhead signs on OH 161 near I-270 have functional (!) lights attached to them, despite being fully retroreflective signs. I found that odd, as these signs date to 2005 at the earliest and ODOT would have stopped including lights with new signs around that time.
If you're getting gas and you pre-pay at the pump, make sure you have your car facing the right direction. Because realizing the gas tank is on the other side and you need to get back in and turn the car around is embarrassing, even when you're the only person at the gas station because it's 4:30 AM.

Of note: They tacked the OH 161 shield above the I-270 sign even though there's plenty of blank space where it could have gone, and the tiny arrow in the white-on-green (!) "EXIT ONLY".
Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."
Wow, I only just noticed the Exit Only part.
Yes, driving into the barrier is the perfect way to reach the exit!

"Communism is a party."
See, I've seen that before, and understood the pieces of the picture taken separately, but am unsure why someone combined them all unless they just wanted to make a "LOL, RANDOM!" background.
Which is probably excuse enough as far as the inter-butts are concerned.

This is a portion of the official 1978 Michigan state highway map. Note the highlighted cities, which appear across the border into Ohio:

^^^Nice! The tire tracks seem to be about to converge, but apart from that, it looks good.

Sometimes I feel weird for preferring the text version of this sign. I can understand why the FHWA would want to move toward graphics, but...for me it doesn't quite work. When I come across the text version I immediately know there's a stop sign ahead, but when I see the graphic version it seems to take me just a split-second longer to process.

An unenviable task, I'm sure.
